About Protobuf
Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) is Google's open-source, language-neutral mechanism for serializing structured data via a compact binary format defined in .proto schemas. It is used by developers for efficient data interchange and as the payload format for gRPC services. It provides schema definitions, code generation across many languages, backward/forward-compatible evolution, and fast, small-footprint (de)serialization.
