Communication Interface

Pro implementaci zakázkové aplikace slouží komunikační rozhraní splňující:

• gRPC (Remote Procedure Call framework využívající Protocol Buffers pro serializaci a přenos dat pomocí HTTP protokolu)
• obousměrnou komunikaci a obsluhu několika klientů současně
• podporu nejpoužívanějších programovacích jazyků (C#, C++, Java, Node, PHP, Python, Ruby…)
• popis rozhraní pomocí .proto souborů, z nichž je automaticky generována implementace komunikace ve zvoleném jazyce
