gRPC [Golang] Master Class Build Modern API and Microservices - [Demo] Language Interoperability

The video demonstrates the interoperability of gRPC across different programming languages using the same protocol buffer files. The instructor shows a practical demo with services implemented in Go and Java, proving that a Go server can communicate with both Go and Java clients, and vice versa. The key takeaway is that gRPC is not tied to any specific language, as long as the protocol buffer files are consistent, allowing for seamless cross-language communication.

What is the key component that ensures language interoperability in gRPC?

• The programming language used

• The protocol buffer files

• The client library

• The server configuration

In the demo, what types of RPCs are demonstrated with the Go server?

• Unary, server streaming, client streaming, bidirectional streaming

• Client streaming, batch processing, unary, server streaming

• Unary, batch processing, client streaming, bidirectional streaming

• Server streaming, batch processing, unary, bidirectional streaming

What was the outcome when the Java client communicated with the Go server?

• The communication failed due to language differences

• The Java client could not connect to the Go server

• The Java client received responses from the Go server

• The Go server crashed

What happens when a Java server communicates with a Go client?

• The Java server needs a special configuration

• The Go client cannot understand the Java server

• The Java server sends responses successfully to the Go client

• The communication is only one-way

Which statement is true about gRPC interoperability?

• It works with any language using the same protocol buffer file

• It requires different protocol buffer files for each language

• It only works between Go and Java

• It is limited to server-client communication within the same language
