.NET gRPC - Deep Dive

Dive deep into the world of gRPC in .NET with this comprehensive conference talk from Copenhagen DevFest 2023. Explore how gRPC addresses the increasing need for scalability and performance in modern web development, particularly for service-to-service communication. Learn about gRPC's advantages as a contract-based, performant solution with smaller response/request bodies, ideal for polyglot environments. Discover its support for various models, from client-server to bi-directional streaming. Investigate the benefits of client-side load balancing and gRPC transcoding for streamlining communication. Gain insights into implementing gRPC in .NET Core 3.0, where it is treated as a first-class citizen. Understand how gRPC can help untangle dependencies and reduce coupling in projects that have become intertwined over time. By the end of this talk, acquire the knowledge to effectively use gRPC, configure client-side load balancing, and implement gRPC transcoding to enhance your point-to-point communication mechanisms.
