This is why gRPC was invented

In this video I discuss the reasoning and all the problems and limitations that lead to the invention of gRPC.

Wow, talking about a problem before a solution. How refreshing - thanks for taking the time to communicate clearly! (subcribed)

The client library may be one of the reasons but other reasons are the encoding/decoding with protobuf uses less bandwidth during network transfers and field values with optional tags for future version updates that, unlike REST or SOAP, minimize breaking changes.

[novaria]

Awesome! You deserve lots more views.
The format is perfect too.

I find that not enough people talk about the fundamentals on which modern tech is building upon (which I personally think is important in order to create good software).

[siyangren]

Very detailed story, deconstructing the http library namely fetch explaining the procedure (establishing connection, switching protocol, etc.) and drawing an equation between this and networking library from grpc. WELL DONE.

Hossein I love your videos but this one seems not reasonable to me, gRPC itself is yet a client library itself and the clients need to be maintained for all programming languages. But the usual http clients for each programming language are usually built-in to the language or there are super popular ones that you are sure they would never stop to be maintained. gRPC is great just because it uses the network very efficiently. Just sending the data client needs with 0 overhead.

Dude, I'm enjoying this like a podcast <3

[alexwang]

legend tone, just like your friend is explaining it to you

[Adyel-YT]

Great content and quality. Keep on grinding, more people will come eventually.

[paneerlovr]

Dude, this is like comedy standup for us protocol junkies.

[amiratorkhani]

you are so cool u made me laugh and understood the gRPC in the same time great job!

[viticoinf]

Hahaha love your tone good explanation! I remember when we were implementing the low level communication at jWebSocket back in 2010 to have a C# client, python client, ... All that handshake low level implementation was driving us nuts.

[amirfarnad]

I like the attitude in your voice! Good content too! :D

[sethgrayson]

Pls fix the audio. The decibel levels fluctuate widly from 20db (whispering) to 70db (shouting).

[pging]

speaker certainly has a manner which keeps me interested, despite the subject matter.

[Croissinate]

As a security researcher, Protobuf makes me want to commit sudoku

[tiendang]

There is a lot of reason to use gRPC, but I still don't have a reason strong enough

[mariotrevino]

HAHAHAHAHA this is the best intro that I have seen in a video, straight to the point, concise and honest, I don't have a clue of who the fuck you are, because I found this only by searching gRPC, but you rock man!

[abdulmananahmed]

Wow thanks for this friendly explanation

[kayodekehinde]

Nice video display, but how do I know that the HTTP2 is hidden?

[darthbill-sv]

So they are going to fix client libraries by writing client libraries?
