What is gRPC?
gRPC (gRPC Remote Procedure Calls) is a modern open source high performance Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework that can run in any environment. It is often used to connect services in a microservices architecture. gRPC uses Protocol Buffers as its Interface Definition Language (IDL) and for message serialization, which makes it language-neutral and highly efficient.
