The complete gRPC course [Protobuf + Go + Java]

What you'll learn

What gRPC is, how it works, why we should use it, and where it is suitable to
The amazing HTTP/2 protocol that gRPC is built on
Compare gRPC with REST
Write and serialise protocol-buffer messages using Go + Java
Define gRPC services with protocol-buffer and generate Go + Java codes
Implement 4 types of gRPC using Go + Java: unary, server-streaming, client-streaming, bidirectional streaming
Handle context deadline, gRPC errors and status codes
Write production-grade application with interfaces and unit tests for gRPC services
Use gRPC interceptors to authenticate & authorise users with JWT
Secure gRPC connection with sever-side & mutual SSL/TLS
Enable gRPC reflections for service discovery
Load balancing gRPC service
Use gRPC gateway to generate RESTful service and swagger API


Requirements

You only need to have basic programming skills in Go or Java
You don't need to know protocol-buffer before, since we will learn deeply about it in this course

Description

If you're building APIs for your microservices or mobile applications, you definitely want to try gRPC.

It is super-fast, strongly-typed, and you no longer need to write a lot of boilerplate codes for services communication. Thanks to awesome HTTP/2 and Protocol Buffer!

This is a 4-in-1 course, where you will learn not only gRPC, but also protocol-buffer and backend development with Go and Java. The codes in this course are production-grade, with well-organised structure and unit tests.

Who this course is for:

Software developers at all levels, who want to apply gRPC to their microservices or mobile applications
Software architects who wants to understands how gRPC works and where it should be used
