gRPC

Business Profile

Core Value Proposition

gRPC provides a high performance, open source universal RPC framework that can run in any environment.

Target Customer

Software developers and engineering teams building distributed systems, microservices, and apps that connect devices, mobile applications and web frontends to backend services.

Key Differentiator

Cross-language and cross-platform RPC with bi-directional streaming and fully integrated authentication over HTTP/2, auto-generating idiomatic client and server stubs for multiple languages, and an open source CNCF-incubation project.

Implementation Timeline

Quick start possible with a single-line installation; value can be realized after defining services with Protocol Buffers and deploying.

Pain Points

1Need for high performance RPC across data centers and edge devices
2Requirement for multi-language and multi-platform client/server code generation
3Need for observability and security (load balancing, tracing, health checks, authentication) in distributed systems

Key Features

1Protocol Buffers-based service definition
2Automatic generation of idiomatic client and server stubs in multiple languages
3Bi-directional streaming with HTTP/2-based transport
4Pluggable load balancing, tracing, health checking and authentication
5Single-line installation for runtime and development environments
6Works across languages and platforms
