Apache Thrift

Social recommendations and mentions

We have tracked the following product recommendations or mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you see what people think about Apache Thrift and what they use it for.
  • Delving Deeper: Enriching Microservices with Golang with CloudWeGo
    While gRPC and Apache Thrift have served the microservice architecture well, CloudWeGo's advanced features and performance metrics set it apart as a promising open source solution for the future. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
  • Reddit System Design/Architecture
    Services in general communicate via Thrift (and in some cases HTTP). Source: about 1 year ago
  • Universal type language!
    Protocol Buffers is the most popular one, but there are many others such as Apache Thrift and my own Typical. Source: about 1 year ago
  • You worked on it? Why is it slow then?
    RPC is not strictly OO, but you can think of RPC calls like method calls. In general it will reflect your interface design and doesn't have to be top-down, although a good project usually will look that way. A good contrast to REST where you use POST/PUT/GET/DELETE pattern on resources where as a procedure call could be a lot more flexible and potentially lighter weight. Think of it like defining methods in code... Source: over 1 year ago
  • Java Serialization with Protocol Buffers
    The information can be stored in a database or as files, serialized in a standard format and with a schema agreed with your Data Engineering team. Depending on your information and requirements, it can be as simple as CSV, XML or JSON, or Big Data formats such as Parquet, Avro, ORC, Arrow, or message serialization formats like Protocol Buffers, FlatBuffers, MessagePack, Thrift, or Cap'n Proto. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • RESTful Webservice, gRPC, ApacheThrift for Microservices
    How to talk through the service with a Binary method, which will make the transmission efficiency faster It recommends a tool called ApacheThrift. Suitable for use in Big Data applications where most applications are synchronous. If the destination system has a timeout, it should not be called. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • Type Enthusiast's Notes about TypeScript Series Final Updates
    We are doing something relevant to what you are asking about at my current work (in a very proprietary way). We have a home grown language (sorta extension of GraphQL) language which is (again sorta) backed by python and haskell. Thrift (https://thrift.apache.org/) goes in a similar direction too. Either attempt can express only relatively simple types. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Ask HN: Is there a tool to generate binary protocol figures out of a spec?
    IIRC, thrift (https://thrift.apache.org/) could render defined types/structs to an SVG. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
  • Are there any libraries for defining and generating code for byte- or bit- aligned messaging or packet formats?
    ASN.1 might not have the best reputation, but it will just work like expected once it gets going https://bellard.org/ffasn1/ There's also https://thrift.apache.org/. Source: over 2 years ago
  • GraphQL - Usecase and Architecture
    Https (1.1, 2 or 3) or grpc (over http/2) or Thrift or Websockets? - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
  • I made an NBT-based data format, but a little more general purpose
    Apache Thrift -- fairly similar to protocol buffers. Source: almost 3 years ago
  • REST vs. gRPC vs. GraphQL
    Apache Thrift is another great way of server-server & client-server communication. Pretty similar to protobuf but feels a bit more mature to me. https://thrift.apache.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
