Key benefits

Explore all aspects of gRPC implementation on .NET, from the most basic features to advanced ones

Discover best practices for using gRPC to make sure that your applications are as efficient and as scalable as possible

Identify when gRPC is the best tool for the job and when it isn't

Description

Explore gRPC's capabilities for faster communication between your microservices using the HTTP/2 protocol in this practical guide that shows you how to implement gRPC on the .NET platform. gRPC is one of the most efficient protocols for communication between microservices that is also relatively easy to implement. However, its official documentation is often fragmented and.NET developers might find it difficult to recognize the best way to map between C# data types and fields in gRPC messages. This book will address these concerns and much more. Starting with the fundamentals of gRPC, you'll discover how to use it inside .NET apps. You’ll explore best practices for performance and focus on scaling a gRPC app. Once you're familiar with the inner workings of the different call types that gRPC supports, you'll advance to learning how to secure your gRPC endpoints by applying authentication and authorization. With detailed explanations, this gRPC .NET book will show you how the Protobuf protocol allows you to send messages efficiently by including only the necessary data. You'll never get confused again while translating between C# data types and the ones available in Protobuf. By the end of the book, you’ll have gained practical gRPC knowledge and be able to use it in .NET apps to enable direct communication between microservices.

Who is this book for?

This book is for NET developers who are working with microservices and are looking for efficient solutions to facilitate communication between services using gRPC. Anyone who is familiar with microservices architecture and has knowledge of the fundamentals of .NET Core, but not necessarily of gRPC, will also find this book useful.

I was looking for how to get started with gRPC and this book provided me exactly that. Great read with detailed step by step instructions. I highly suggest this book to code along or keep it as a reference

This book is great for those people who wants to start using gRPC.The book will give you good understanding of gRPC, its full of practical examples so it is easy to use theoretical knowledge in practice.Book covers every topic starting from basic to advance topics.As a Solution Architect I highly recommend this book.

Mrs N Mar 21, 2022

This is a great book to get started with gRPC and what the API pattern is all about. I knew a lot of the basics about gRPC yet I gained from the initial chapters of the book. But what I really enjoyed is the advanced topics, very well explained in a way that anyone can understand. There are some typos in the book but apart from that a great book!
