Service Communication – REST vs. GrapQL vs. gRPC
Effective service communication is crucial in an era where microservices and distributed architectures are ubiquitous. This one-day course introduces the three primary API communication styles: REST, GraphQL, and gRPC.
Participants will learn through platform-agnostic presentations, demonstrations, discussions, and hands-on exercises. By understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each approach, you’ll be better equipped to make informed decisions in your projects, whether you’re designing new services or maintaining existing ones.
