Part 3 – gRPC, Logging, and Monitoring

In this part, you will learn about gRPC-based API development. On the completion of this part, you will be able to differentiate between REST and reactive APIs with gRPC-based APIs. You will be able to build a server and client using the Protobuf schema. Finally, you will be able to facilitate distributed logging and tracing, collecting the logs as an Elasticsearch index that will be used for debugging and analysis on the Kibana app.

This part contains the following chapters:
