Hands-on gRPC with Go
Uber

In this workshop, we’ll go through a small micro services setup and we’ll focus on establishing the communication between them using the gRPC protocol. We’ll explore all communication types gRPC supports and by the end, you’ll have sufficient knowledge to integrate gRPC in your own infrastructure. |
