I am wondering what is the difference if I send JSON via rest protocol. Maybe I don't understand well but in the slide How gRPC works? it is exactly the same as would in REST worked? I would make a request and got a response. Also, the server can be written into node.js, my client into java... In this manner what exactly is the benefit of gRPC? What they do differently?
