Next Up - Building a gRPC Server for Efficient Communication

gRPC APIs are a robust improvement over traditional REST APIs. With gRPC, a client can invoke a procedure on the server just like a local procedure. In the first part of this series, you learned how to write a Protobuf definition and how to generate Go code from it. You also used the grpc-gateway plugin to generate a reverse proxy for REST clients.

In the next part, you'll start writing the gRPC server.
