RPC (Remote Procedure Call) is called “**remote**” because it enables communications between remote services when services are deployed to different servers under microservice architecture. From the user’s point of view, it acts like a local function call.
|
||||
|
||||
The diagram below illustrates the overall data flow for **gRPC**.

Step 1: A REST call is made from the client. The request body is usually in JSON format.
|
||||
|
||||
Steps 2 - 4: The order service (gRPC client) receives the REST call, transforms it, and makes an RPC call to the payment service. gRPC encodes the **client stub** into a binary format and sends it to the low-level transport layer.
