1. Protobuf in Rust: Integrating Another Language into the gRPC Ecosystem

   Posted on August 19, 2024 in programming

   We’ve now built similar RPC setups using Thrift and Protobuf/gRPC in Java and Python. Following the pattern established with Thrift, let’s integrate Rust into our Protobuf/gRPC ecosystem. Rust’s performance and safety features make it a popular choice for high-performance back-ends, and this exercise will show …
