gRPC Masterclass with Java & Spring Boot

** Mastering gRPC: Building High-Performance Microservices with Protocol Buffers and Spring Boot **

In this comprehensive course, you will delve into the world of gRPC and learn how to leverage this cutting-edge technology to build high-performance and scalable APIs for your microservices. With gRPC, you can achieve up to 10 times the performance compared to traditional REST-based communication. You will discover the different types of gRPC APIs and understand how they can address common challenges in microservices communication.

By the end of this course, you will be comfortable developing microservices with gRPC, utilizing protocol buffers for data serialization, implementing load balancing strategies, handling authentication, managing errors, integrating gRPC with Spring Boot, and building multiple services that seamlessly interact with each other.
