REST APIs are great. Until they are not.

OpenSearch now supports native gRPC endpoints with Protocol Buffer schemas, giving teams a high-performance alternative to JSON-based REST without having to give up REST entirely.

Both protocols run in parallel. Adopt at your own pace. https://opensearch.org/blog/advancing-opensearch-with-grpc-and-protocol-buffers/

It’s surprisingly fast to mechanically convert my REST API to gRPC as the logic is already done and only a thin wrapper needs to be done for the app. Slowest part is getting the Rust server compiled. :)

I started to dive into #gRPC in #rust. It's just a Hello World but in case you need a brief introduction, here is my right-up:

https://fbull.de/posts/introduction-to-grpc-in-rust

Testing gRPC for a small part of my iOS/iPadOS app. I already did some image resource fetching using Protobuf and it's working fine. It's however not a solution that scales too well as it's only one request in flight at one time. So rather than invent an own multiplexing I'll see how gRPC would work.

Perhaps my entire backend could be gRPC one day, but that's a bit of work as it's some 100+ endpoints...
