Hooked on HTTP/2: Microservices development with gRPC

In this session you’ll learn all about gRPC and how it benefits from being based on HTTP/2 and through the use of a working demo and detailed code examples you’ll see how to build gRPC enabled microservices and clients.

gRPC is a language-neutral, platform-neutral RPC framework and toolset which is based on the finalized HTTP/2 standard and developed and open sourced by Google. You can use it to build highly performant, scalable APIs by allowing the definition of services using a powerful binary serialization toolset and language called Protocol Buffers. gRPC helps you to generate idiomatic client and server stubs from service definitions written in a variety of languages.
