Introduction to gRPC with Richard Belleville from Google

gRPC is a modern open source high performance RPC framework that can run in any environment. It can efficiently connect services in and across data centers with pluggable support for load balancing, tracing, health checking and authentication. It's also incredibly applicable in distributed computing to connect devices, mobile applications and browsers to backend services.

In this talk, we will design, build, and test a simple gRPC service from scratch using the Go programming language. We'll then deploy it to Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and observe!

Food will be provided by the CNCF! Everyone is welcome so feel free to bring friends or co-workers! The speaker is remote and a recording will be released shortly after the event.
