gRPC Microservices

About

Streamline the development of distributed systems with comprehensive guidance on gRPC architecture and Protocol Buffer schema design. This skill provides deep expertise in implementing all four gRPC streaming patterns, developing robust middleware through interceptors, and ensuring long-term API stability with backward-compatible schema versioning. Whether building real-time chat applications, high-throughput data pipelines, or polyglot microservice environments, it offers the patterns and best practices needed to deliver production-grade, low-latency services.

Key Features

• Resource-oriented service design and pagination patterns
• Implementation patterns for all four gRPC streaming types
• Protobuf schema design and evolution best practices
• Custom interceptors for cross-cutting concerns like authentication and logging
• Integration of well-known Google Protocol Buffer types
• 17 GitHub stars

Use Cases

• Building low-latency internal communication between polyglot microservices
• Designing evolvable, type-safe APIs with strong contracts for distributed systems
• Implementing real-time bidirectional data synchronization for collaborative applications
