I think there's a ton of nuance to this that can get glossed over. Decoupling like this, as with all things, should be done with care. When you implement something like this, you're just shifting the complexity of resolving the final result of the computation to the consumer. The "big" thing to remember when you're "simplifying" an architecture is "you're just shifting complexity from A to B". In-process complexity is a whole lot easier to manage and troubleshoot than infrastructure complexity. Direct service-to-service communication (built in a way that enforces location transparency), IMO, should be the preferred method. From there, move to an async pattern when it's warranted. If your communication enforces location transparency, then shifting to an async (or half-async) request/response workflow can be accomplished in a reasonable amount of time. Enterprise Integration Patterns and Reactive Design Patterns are both excellent tomes and wellsprings of knowledge here.

Appreciate the comment. I don't think you're moving complexity, it's about managing coupling. Direct service to service (RPC) is keeping the same degree of coupling, just adding the network to the mix.. Which is IMO worse than if it were just in-process. In other words, if you can't control coupling in-process, you'll be worst off moving it out of process via RPC. Can you get into a shitstorm with messaging? Absolutely. Ultimately if you can't define service boundaries based on functional cohesion, you're going to end up in a world of hurt regardless because of coupling.

Sure, it will minimize cases in which a request ends up in a temporarily faulty instance of the backend, but if the entire service is not able to respond, the problem remains, and you still need to put in place distributed rollbacks, except now you rely on timeouts for that.

I'm using gRPC on my current project more or less the same way you described in the 'Query Composition' section of the video and I'm more than happy with it so far! The UI is calling a graphQL gateway (HTTP) but the gateway talks to other services internally via gRPC. The performance is quite good and the gateway can generate the clients during a build which makes the development workflow streamlined. Other than that only some maintenance cron jobs are calling services directly (using gRPC as well) where a failure is not a big deal, other than that I went with the 'no direct calls principle' and utilizing commands and events for communicating between boundaries. Anyway, good talk as always!

I don't really follow-gRPC calls are inherently synchronous, it uses HTTP2 under the hood and is not meant to solve any of the problems message queues solve. If an event based architecture doesn't make sense for your system then debating gRPCs merit vs messaging is like assessing a fork vs a spoon for eating soup. The value of gRPC is in bidirectional streaming and multi-language support via generated thin-clients using Protobuf RPC & message definitions which can be a huge benefit for a variety of reasons-none of which are to do with async communication.

My personal preference is complete isolation. By that I mean; use the message bus. I push events or commands when I need stuff to happen. The REST endpoints I do expose are purely for the end user to interact with my systems. When I build services I make every service completely isolated and it only communicates by accepting messages from the bus. Every service in the project is completely unaware of any other services anywhere. There are occasions when I have to make calls out to 3rd party services - and I keep these as minimal as possible and use REST. I'd avoid gRPC at all costs to be fair. As soon as you chain REST or gRPC calls, you introduce resilience problems that just go against the whole point of microservices for me.

I would say for web apps it's a very solid choice might be even better than REST and GraphQL in developer experience. The only downside is lack of built-in decimal support.

one important difference in JSON/REST is that (versioned-)schemas are completely optional, and usually not implemented or enforced properly between teams. But due to protobuf, gRPC "forces" teams to think about and implement interface schemas from the get-go. This is overhead inside one single team, but it can be very helpful in the long run across multiple teams / different parts of an organization.

I need the ability to query the state of the car or vehicles, but I also need to be listening for the events without having 100% coupling. Would you still use an event queue?

If you are thinking about gRPC you’re likely looking to replace for example a Restful API. This video isn’t that helpful in comparing the two. Side note with message queuing, it was mentioned that with a distributed workflow it is difficult to maintain atomicity without a distributed transaction coordinator. I don’t see how a message queue helps this unless your strategy is to force rolling forward the operation. My experience is that asynchronous workflows add a tremendous amount of complexity in cases where if there was a problem, sometimes the solution is simply to retry the operation.

The video is ... trash. gRPC is a remote procedure call, yes. But, with proper implementation, you can think of it simply as "does everything rest does, but better in every single way". I won't spend too much time on this, just a quick list: - Encodes messages in binary, compresses them. Think of a json, but you don't need to send the key value pair of name and value. You send the name once, and shove as many values as you want. Repeating values can be refferenced to save bandwidth - HTTP 2.0 streaming (tl;dr - even faster, loads of binary compressed data) - Decodes the message on the other end - Generates objects for your given language - Loads the data into those objects - Handles instanciation and communication - offers hooks for you to modify behaviour It's not like I expose a method in my code and just let you push buttons, no, I do exactly what you do when you build a rest client. Mine's just faster, more reliable*, less bandwdith. * I'm actually not sure it's more reliable. I'm too lazy to google right now. So disclaimer.

How would messaging solve 'on the fly complex calculations' on data which belongs within the originating service boundary and where those calculation logic also naturally belongs inside that originating service? Putting plain data on the bus is easy but i don't know about calculations based on dynamic input from downstream services. Would you duplicate and move this logic to the downstream services? Publish a nuget with that logic from the originating service to be used in downstream services on top of the data that was published on the bus? Isn't an api much easier in that case? Of course there's the trade off that there is again temporal coupling.

I'm only going to mention that it's irrelevant whether it's gRPC or any other P2P comm, however I'd like to comment on some conceptual statements you've made in this video. The stressing on where the communication originates from is misleading in my opinion. It does not matter what initiates a process - RPC always brings in temporal and spatial coupling (which is bad). Your point of "if Service A handles a message then it's OK for it to RPC Service B" (apart from temporal and spatial coupling concerns) leads to a question - how do you deal if Service A or Service B emit messages or make calls to other services or make changes to datastores as part of this request handling? Say, Service B calls its datastore and increments "access count" value in there and then publishes a message, but Service A fails and the whole chain of changes need to be rolled back? Well, there is no way you can do that, period. I can think of many other similar problems here. To me, what you're saying here is akin to "Distributed transactions are OK if you use them for use case A, but not for use case B". No, distributed transactions are never OK, you will never conquer them, you will never be 100% free of side effects and sooner or later they will bite you bad. What you are *not* clearly explaining in this video, I believe, is the notion of autonomy and boundaries. All of this comes back to Domain Driven Design, Bounded Context and, most of all, Aggregate concept. When aggregates are properly designed, all of change happens within aggregates with no external communication to other aggregates. This is how you get "automicity" for your transaction. Then you can announce the changes you made to your state to everyone else (hello EDA) and let other aggregates worry about themselves. For complex processes requiring multiple aggregates there is a concept of Saga (which I see you've got a video on), but that again encapsulates any change performed by a single aggregate to its internal logic. If I may suggest - please do not simplify concepts that should not be simplified. Those who lead should be able to understand these intricacies because it's a matter of success vs failure for large distributed systems. Well, there are many other ways to fail at that, but not being able to understand autonomy is a big one.

It has its use cases, but I would agree that most of the time, event based approaches are superior. I assume another good distinction when to use it and when not to would also be to see whether the response would still make sense if a service would break down.

I think the main concern here is that when you communicate between services using grpc, you don't really know how many extra grpc calls would been made behind the inital grpc call you started, because one can hardly know the implement details of all those grpc calls beyond the microservice that one developed himself. staring from 5:34, you mentioned how the situation would be different when the originating is started from an event, because you can always retry before ack that message, however, I would still avoid using grpc to communicate between services even if it is originated from an event, because the same problem of latency piling up still exists. I would prefer to use grpc wihtin the boundary of the service, but communicate across different processors, in the case of k8s, it would be different pods. as for the query composition part, how do you feel about using event sourcing to compose the read model into projections so that no brunch of grpc calls to different services are needed for every query to the read model.
