Could you expand on that a bit? I'm interested in promoting gRPC over thrift at work, but so far the only benefits I see are the HTTP/2 transport which allows for better load balancing and request tracing on the transport level.
- manigandham 8y agogRPC with Protobuf has been faster in our usage and also has more development these days compared to Thrift. It's also simpler and better designed by just sticking to a single well-tested serialization format. HTTP/2 is also a big advantage since it's standardized and easily integrates into many existing load balancers and proxies like Envoy and nginx, both of which now natively support gRPC directly too.
