The next guy who inherits your internal code would prefer you to just use JSON. There is a reason it is ubiquitous, simplicity. I wonder how long though with all these type systems and XJSONs.
- bpicolo 10y agoMmm, disagree. It's not really the interchange format that's the only useful part of GRPC. (Though protobuf is pretty standardized these days). This was just the context of "I'm a big org standardizing on microservice tradeoffs", so maybe slightly out-of-context
- drawkbox 10y agoAt least GRPC is a standard, JSON/REST is arguably more simple. But both are at least standard and allow teams to not reinvent everything and provide a baseline/plane for others to work on it. Just stating most programmers would probably rather inherit a JSON/REST app over a GRPC one though it is quite nice.
