When to Choose gRPC
gRPC excels in these scenarios:
- Microservices Communication: Internal service-to-service calls
- Real-time Streaming: Live data feeds, chat, notifications
- Mobile Backends: Efficient binary protocol saves bandwidth
- Polyglot Systems: Services in different languages need to communicate
- High-Throughput APIs: When REST/JSON becomes a bottleneck
gRPC vs REST: When to Use Which
| Aspect | gRPC | REST |
|---|---|---|
| Performance | Binary, 10x faster | JSON, human-readable |
| Typing | Strong (Proto) | Weak (OpenAPI optional) |
| Streaming | Native support | Workarounds needed |
| Browser | Needs gRPC-Web | Native support |
| Tooling | Code generation | Manual or codegen |
| Learning Curve | Steeper | Gentler |
My recommendation: Use gRPC for internal microservices, REST for public APIs. I can help you design hybrid architectures that leverage both.
