[OKC JUG] January Meeting: gRPC 101 for Java Developers

[Jason Lee]

No problem. I was just heading into a meeting so I had to be brief. Here
you go:

gRPC is a high performance, open source, general RPC framework that puts
mobile and HTTP/2 first. gRPC is based on many years of Google's experience
in building distributed systems - it is designed to be low latency,
bandwidth and CPU efficient, to create massively distributed systems that
span data centers, as well as power mobile apps, real-time communications,
IoT devices and APIs. It's also interoperable between multiple languages.


But beyond that fact that it's more efficient than REST, we'll look into
how to use gRPC's streaming API, where you can establish server-side
streaming, client-side streaming, and bidirectional streaming! This allows
developers to build sophisticated real-time applications with ease.


In addition to learning about gRPC and HTTP/2 concepts with code and
demonstrations, we'll also deep dive into integration with existing build
systems such as Maven and Gradle, but also frameworks such as Spring Boot
and RxJava.


Writing/using a Spring Boot starter to run gRPC server

Configuring projects to generate gRPC stub code

Integrating w/ RxJava's observable sequences, which matches very well with
gRPC's Stream Observable constructs
