gRPC [Java] Master Class: Build Modern API and Microservices - [Theory] Deadlines

The video tutorial discusses the importance of setting deadlines in GRPC to manage how long clients are willing to wait for an RPC to complete. It emphasizes the need for setting appropriate deadlines for each RPC call, considering the API's expected completion time. The server should cancel tasks if deadlines are exceeded. Deadlines are propagated across GRPC calls, ensuring all microservices in a chain are aware of the time constraints. The tutorial recommends reading a GRPC blog for further understanding.
