JSON is Great, but Protobufs Make It Faster

JSON is a great tool for human-readable data exchange, but when it comes to performance in microservices, there’s a better option. Google Protocol Buffers (Protobufs) offer a faster, more efficient alternative that reduces payload size and boosts serialization speeds. In this lightning talk, I’ll introduce Protobufs, explain why they outshine JSON in high-performance environments, and provide a practical example of their use in microservices. By the end of this talk, you'll have your eyes opened to the power of Protobufs and how you can use them to optimize your systems and communication across services.

Target Audience: Developers and architects working with microservices, or anyone looking to optimize data serialization and improve the performance of distributed systems.
