About:
Apache brpc is an industrial-grade RPC framework used in over 1 million services for building high-performance distributed systems. It implements standards like Baidu-Std, RESTful, and Thrift, offering features such as batch calls and latency-sensing load balancing. The framework is widely adopted by companies like Baidu, Tencent, and Xiaomi for its efficiency and robustness.
Key Features:
  • Supports multiple protocols (Baidu-Std, RESTful, Thrift, Redis)
  • High performance with non-blocking I/O and lightweight threads
  • Built-in features like health checks, metrics, and dynamic service management
  • Powerful built-in debugging and profiling tools
Use Cases:
  • Building high-performance microservices and distributed systems
  • Implementing efficient inter-service communication in cloud infrastructure
  • Creating gateways and proxies for protocol translation
Alternatives:
  • gRPC – gRPC is a popular cross-platform framework, while brpc offers more built-in features like batch processing and advanced debugging tools.
  • Thrift – Thrift provides multi-language RPC support, whereas brpc is often favored for its C++ performance and rich feature set.
