Features

• gRPC Client Implementations - Provides a high-performance client implementation for invoking remote methods on a server using strongly typed contracts.
• gRPC Microservices Integration - Provides a high-performance communication layer for building scalable, type-safe microservices architectures in .NET.
• Protobuf Serialization - Encodes structured data into a compact binary format using Protocol Buffers to reduce payload size and improve speed.
• gRPC Data Streaming - Implements high-performance unary, server-to-client, client-to-server, and bi-directional message streaming.
• Asynchronous Stream Handling - Leverages non-blocking I/O to handle bi-directional message flows for real-time data exchange without stalling threads.
• Binary Communication Protocols - Utilizes a high-efficiency binary serialization format to minimize payload size and maximize network throughput.
• Cross-Language Service Communication - Enables seamless communication between .NET applications and services written in other languages via shared gRPC contracts.
• gRPC Implementations - Provides a complete .NET implementation of the gRPC framework for high-performance remote procedure calls.
• HTTP/2 Support - Uses multiplexed streams and binary framing to allow multiple concurrent requests over a single TCP connection.
• gRPC Service Implementations - Enables running high-performance remote procedure call services integrated with logging, dependency injection, and security.
• Remote Procedure Execution - Implements an execution model that allows calling remote functions as if they were local methods.
• RPC Data Streaming - Supports exchanging multiple messages via client, server, or bi-directional streams for large datasets and real-time updates.
• RPC Frameworks - Implements a full RPC framework for executing remote functions as if they were local calls.
• gRPC Server Implementations - Implements high-performance servers that handle remote procedure calls over a binary protocol.
• Contract-First Type Safety - Provides compile-time safety by generating client and server stubs from a central service contract.
• Unary RPC Execution - Executes standard single request-response remote procedure call patterns.
• gRPC-Web Proxies - Implements a proxy that translates binary gRPC calls into a format compatible with web browsers.
• gRPC Call Interception - Allows injecting custom logic into the request-response pipeline to handle metadata, logging, and cross-cutting concerns.
• Automatic Retry Clients - Implements configurable automatic retry policies for failed requests to increase network resilience.
• gRPC-Web Bridging - Provides a translation layer that converts gRPC-Web requests into standard gRPC server requests.
• JSON Transcoding - Generates RESTful JSON APIs from service definitions to ensure compatibility with standard HTTP clients.
• gRPC-Web Proxies - Translates binary frames into a web-compatible format to allow browser clients to communicate via gRPC-Web.
• Client-Side Load Balancing - Distributes requests across multiple backend service replicas using client-side load balancing logic.
• Client Stub Management - Configures and injects communication clients using a factory pattern to optimize resource management and application startup.
• Code-First gRPC Service Definitions - Allows defining gRPC service contracts directly from C# classes without requiring external .proto files.
• Inter-Service Transport Optimizations - Supports efficient local and remote communication using HTTP/2 and Unix Domain Sockets.
• gRPC and HTTP TLS Securings - Encrypts and authenticates communication between clients and servers using mutual TLS and certificates.
• Method-Level Authorization - Restricts specific gRPC method execution using authentication and authorization tokens.
• Request Interception Middleware - Passes requests through a pipeline of handlers to inject cross-cutting logic like logging and authentication.
• Server Reflection - Hosts a service that allows clients to discover available services and methods dynamically at runtime.
• Diagnostic Logging - Captures execution traces and diagnostic logs to identify and resolve communication failures.
• gRPC Service Observability - Provides health checking, diagnostic logging, and server reflection to monitor the operational status of gRPC services.
• Service Health Monitoring - Exposes operational service status to external monitors using standard gRPC health checking protocols.
• Shared Message Contracts - Enables sharing generated message types in a common library to maintain contract consistency across projects.
• Core Libraries - C# implementation for gRPC.
• RPC Frameworks - Framework for implementing gRPC services in .NET.
