Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Understanding gRPC Concepts, Use Cases & Best Practices
Note: gRPC services can also be tested from CLI using tools like evans-cli. But for that reflection needs (if not enabled the path to the proto file is required) to be enabled in gRPC servers. This compare link shows the way to enable reflection and how to enter into evans-cli repl mode. Post entering repl mode of evans-cli, gRPC services can be tested from CLI itself and the process is described in evans-cli GitHub page.

grpcurl-like tool for grpcweb
I use Evans, it supports gRPC and gRPC-web and also supports reflection protocol.

Go and gRPC is just so intuitive. Here's a detailed full-stack flow with gRPC-Web, Go and React. Also, there is a medium story focused on explaining how such a setup might boost efficiency and the step-by-step implementation.

Postman-powered testing of Akka Serverless gRPC APIs
Over the holidays, 2021, Postman gifted a fine upgrade to its users: beta support for the gRPC protocol in its API platform. As a Product Manager for Lightbend and helping out on its new gRPC native PaaS for building and running APIs and microservices, I was excited, to say the least. In another, recent blog post, I mentioned my desire to leverage UI test-and-try tools for APIs (my time in the REST API world of Mashery and PubNub was the source of such desire). In that same post though, I noted the lack of several important gRPC features, like server reflection and more robust import capabilities, as blockers; hence, my deep dive, in that post, into the CLI tool, Evans.

gRPC test-and-try with Akka Serverless and Evans
And who am I kidding? I'm a CLI-type person. Which is why I was super excited to stumble about Evans. Within minutes, I had gone from installation to trying out TLS-secured APIs and microservices running in the cloud on Lightbend's new serverless offering.

Set Up Grpc Web Server With AWS
If everything is set up correctly, you should now be able to use evans to access your web server at the load balancer url or even the url for your ec2 instance directly e.g.

Setting Up a gRPC Protobuf Server With Tonic
After running the server with cargo run, I needed a way to test that the server works. I had heard of an interesting tool called evans, so I decided to use this. It took me a while to figure out the right parameters to query the server, especially because tonic doesn't seem to support gRPC reflection right now, and there are few examples out there.

Golang: out-of-box backpressure handling with gRPC, proven by a Grafana dashboard
gRPC, built on HTTP/2, inherently supports flow control. The server can push updates, but it must also respect flow control signals from the client, ensuring that it doesn't send data faster than what the client can handle.

Reverse Engineering Protobuf Definitions from Compiled Binaries
Yes, grpc_cli tool uses essentially the same mechanism except implemented as a grpc service rather than as a stubby service. The basic principle of both is implementing the C++ proto library's DescriptorDatabase interface with cached recursive queries of (usually) the server's compiled in FileDescriptorProtos.
See also https://github.com/grpc/grpc/blob/master/doc/server-reflecti...
The primary difference between what grpc does and what stubby does is that grpc uses a stream to ensure that the reflection requests all go to the same server to avoid incompatible version skew and duplicate proto transmissions. With that said, in practice version skew is rarely a problem for grpc_cli style "issue a single RPC" usecases: even if requests do go to two or more different versions of a binary that might have incompatible proto graphs, it is very common for the request and response and RPC to all be in the same proto file so you only need to make one RPC in the first place unless you're using an extension mechanism like proto2 extensions or google.protobuf.Any.

Delving Deeper: Enriching Microservices with Golang with CloudWeGo
While gRPC and Apache Thrift have served the microservice architecture well, CloudWeGo's advanced features and performance metrics set it apart as a promising open source solution for the future.

gRPC Name Resolution & Load Balancing on Kubernetes: Everything you need to know (and probably a bit more)
The loadBalancingConfig is what we use in order to decide which policy to go for (round_robin in this case). This JSON representation is based on a protobuf message, then why does the name resolver returns it in the JSON format? The main reason is that loadBalancingConfig is a oneof field inside the proto message and so it can not contain values unknown to the gRPC if used in the proto format. The JSON representation does not have this requirement so we can use a custom loadBalancingConfig .

Actual SSH over HTTPS
In general, tunneling through HTTP2 turns out to be a great choice. There is a RPC protocol built on top of HTTP2: gRPC[1].
This is because HTTP2 is great at exploiting a TCP connection to transmit and receive multiple data structures concurrently - multiplexing.
There may not be a reason to use HTTP3 however, as QUIC already provides multiplexing.
I expect that in the future most communications will be over encrypted HTTP2 and QUIC simply because middleware creators can not resist to discriminate.
