#ICYMI: This is the second post in a series on how we scaled Bugsnag’s new Releases dashboard backend pipeline using gRPC. Read our first blog on why we selected gRPC for our microservices architecture.
For the launch of the Releases dashboard in Bugsnag, we undertook a massive project to scale our data-processing Pipeline and break it down into microservices. As you may have read previously, we selected gRPC as our communication framework that would allow our services to talk to each other, and we began the process of defining the Protocol Buffers necessary to support the gRPC API. Not only does gRPC use the blazingly fast HTTP/2 binary protocol, but it also makes use of Google’s Protocol Buffers; a major reason for choosing gRPC. https://goo.gl/b1NjHH
