Definition

gRPC is a high-performance, open-source remote procedure call framework that enables efficient communication between AI services and microservices.

How It Works

gRPC uses Protocol Buffers for serialization and HTTP/2 for transport, enabling bidirectional streaming and multiplexing. It generates client and server code automatically from service definitions.

The framework supports multiple programming languages and provides built-in load balancing, authentication, and monitoring.

Why It Matters

gRPC reduces latency and bandwidth usage compared to REST APIs, crucial for AI services processing millions of requests. It enables real-time AI applications with streaming capabilities.

Major AI platforms use gRPC for internal service communication and model serving infrastructure.
