<p><a href="https://twitter.com/gnossen">Richard Belleville</a> works at Google on gRPC, a high-performance, universal RPC framework. Richard used gRPC before joining Google to work on it; he talks to <a href="https://kubernetespodcast.com/about">the hosts</a> about its history and derivation from Google’s internal Stubby, how it works, and how it differs from other RPC and messaging systems.</p> <p>Do you have something cool to share?
