In the video, I discussed the revival and importance of Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs) in facilitating inter-service communication over networks. RPCs aim to make network calls resemble local function calls by abstracting complexities like serialization and transport. I highlighted the significance of standardizing communication between services, irrespective of languages used, through RPCs. The concept of stubs in RPCs was explained as the entities responsible for converting requests and responses between services. RPCs offer a seamless way to handle remote calls, improving code readability and efficiency.

Thank you for watching and supporting! it means a ton.
I am on a mission to bring out the best engineering stories from around the world and make you all fall in
love with engineering. If you resonate with this then follow along, I always keep it no-fluff.
this is hands down the best video on RPC that i have found on youtube
Thanks a ton!
you've broken this down so brilliantly that despite being a college student i could understand every word. i'm enamoured.
Man, you are so good. This is the best video on RPC I have ever seen.
Thanks Niraj :)
I wanted to write the same। When u know why how becomes easy ।
I was just reading about protocol buffers and then you come up with RPC...i feel like the universe is trying to tell me something
Go for it man 🤘
Hello Abhishek
Yes it is , Would you please let us know which article or a book you referring to it?
Great explanation. I've worked on gRPC before but this video helps to understand the place of gRPC in the software ecosystem .
Awesome ! I thought I knew RPC but then here I am after 32 minutes well spent.
Love you explanations. Can you please create a demo on how to use RPC? Thanks
It's inspiring how simply and effectively you teach! Thanks for this amazing video. I love your channel. ❤
Thanks 🙌
great video. you rightly said, RPC has revived itself especially gRPC has given a boost. Long back, we use to SOAP and WSDLs were used to generate stubs.
Strong API contract is something which I think has removed a lot of conflict between teams :)
How did I not know about RPC till date? reason being no one explained it so well. Thanks Arpit. !
Bro, I am addicted to your videos. Another disease broke out......
Your video are great, just one request please also make hands on video on these topic too.
Definitely worth watching 33 minutes well spent :)
amazing video bhaiya, way of explaining superb!
Can you also post a video on detailed demo of this? That would be helpful👍
Thank you Arpit 🙏
Nice and informative video.
However at 7:30, you mentioned that there is no standardization in Rest and you need to handle things in different way in different language.
I am 100% clear because as per my exp, I have used REST in XML and JSON only and HTTP calls doesn't depends on any language.
I have done some of my code in python, deployed it lambda and called it from .Net application. I have not faced any issue due to language.
great video as always, maybe a very naive question, if I abstract away the REST calls behind a method that I write in both the languages to serialize and deserialize, wouldn't that be an rpc call as well? is auto generation of these stubs the only differentiating factor then?
Informative thanks
A great explanation brother
Thanks a lot Arpit for this video
really great and informative video, thanks Arpit
This is superb. How do you customize errors if rpc takes care of the errors and retries.
Awesome 😍
Informative in-depth video as always.
7:37 A doubt here. You said there is no standard way for HTTP in all the language. Isn't HTTP a protocol, which has to be formatted in a certain way? So, all the libraries, be it in Python, JAVA, Go, JS, has to decode the text in the same way, right?
agree , i think he meant that , these all services have to set same rule for each one like what will the format of res.body we are getting and all , but yeah it doesn't seem like the main reason to use grpc 😁
@@Krishcode264 Exactly!
How can I download the notes as a as a pdf??
Awesome but where i can find your repo link for RPC
Nice video.
Reminds me of AIDL in Android
Nice video Arpit, but this topic is definitely incomplete without a thorough demo. A thorough demo video would be really helpful
Hi Arpit,
We can generate client/server stubs for rest(jax-rs) and they offer anstraction. So, what is the exact benift we get with rpc over rest.
It was a nice Video.
I have one issue, after stopping the rpc service it's again listening to some port. How can we get to know why it is still listening
Possible to create a video on interservice communication describing HTTP, HTTP2, TCP, UDP, connection pooling, multiplexing terminologies in details? How a change of contract on a service is handled on which many other services are dependent?
I cover it my cohort course and hence cannot put it out on UA-cam. Apologies.
@@AsliEngineering I am already on waitlist. Any idea how long it might take to be part of the course?

Expect a notification on 1st week of March.

I am having an issue with generating the pb.go file..
It is not cotaining registeradvcalcservice
I have been using feign clients for inter service communications and they handle errors (backoff, etc) internally
Could not get why cant services written in two different language communicate ?
Its quite possible with any client library if we have an endpoints.
But how client libraries would talk? What protocol would endpoint be exposing? That is what determines the inter-service communication.
@@AsliEngineering If you expose a REST endpoint, it is assumed due to the verbs - GET, POST etc - that you are using HTTP protocol.
What is that got to do with client libraries? Any client library - python, java, ruby - would be able to communicate with an REST HTTP endpoint and pull data in xml or json etc depending on how the REST server decides to publish its response.
Would be great to collaborate with you. We at mavonic build scalable systems too
Hi Arpit Sir.
A question.
So for the client-server RPC communication, how will the client stub know what IP Address to communicate to?
You create the connection and initialize your client with it.
@@AsliEngineering Thank You, Got it!
Hey arpit i m new to system design can i purchase your course . My job is QA. But system design is something which also interests me. I have some knowledge about the architecture design the project i am working. Do recommend me ? Your course if not from where should i start with system design.
There is a pre-requisite section on the course page; I would encourage you to check that out. There is also a YT playlist attached with the necessary topics.
Some code would be better to support your words and helps in understanding the flow.
How is it better than JSON? Didn't understand
Protobuf packs data more efficiently than a JSON. So fewer bytes to send over the network.
@@AsliEngineering Understood
rpc are used bedefault in ethereum blockchain. each node talk to each other using rpc.
Every 3 mins into your video, I am getting the same youtube ad of a gaza war victim crying. This breaks the chain of attention and highly disturbing. Please keep videos in begining itself and not spread across the whole length. I am probably going to unsubscribe this channel now.
I cannot control that. YT injects them.
