😯 gRPC vs REST - A Brief Comparison

Protocol Buffers

High Performance: gRPC utilizes Protocol Buffers, a data format for serializing structured data, which helps efficiently package and send data. Using the gRPC framework, data is transferred at high-speed thanks to the utilization of the HTTP/2 protocol. This combination of efficiency and speed in data communication leads to high-performance applications. Grpc also ensures high bidirectional streaming performance, allowing simultaneous data transmission between clients and servers.
