gRPC for ASP.NET Core - A New Framework for High Performance APIs

Explore gRPC for ASP.NET Core, a cutting-edge framework for building high-performance APIs, in this comprehensive conference talk. Dive into the world of modern RPC technology, learning how gRPC leverages HTTP/2, Protocol Buffers, and other advanced standards to create efficient, low-latency services. Compare gRPC with traditional REST-based JSON APIs and discover ideal scenarios for its implementation. Gain hands-on experience integrating gRPC services with ASP.NET Core features like dependency injection, logging, and authentication. Follow along as the speaker demonstrates how to develop lightning-fast microservices and frontend applications using gRPC. Delve into key concepts such as protobuf, binary formats, code generation, and streaming. Examine gRPC's performance benefits, supported languages, and compatibility with load balancers. Address common concerns like versioning, reconnecting, and authentication. By the end of this talk, acquire the knowledge to harness gRPC's power for creating robust, high-throughput APIs in your ASP.NET Core projects.
