gRPC vs REST Benchmarks using Redfish

Learn about comprehensive performance benchmarking between gRPC and REST protocols specifically for manageability workloads in this conference talk from the Open Compute Project. Discover detailed benchmark results that address critical gaps in existing comparisons, including full API transfer time measurements with marshalling and unmarshalling overhead, HTTP 1.1 versus HTTP 2.0 performance with Redfish, and comprehensive analysis of CPU utilization, latency, and bandwidth effects. Examine head-to-head protocol comparisons designed specifically for manageability industry use cases, moving beyond superficial benchmarks to provide actionable insights for protocol selection decisions. Gain insights from distinguished technologists at Hewlett Packard Enterprise as they present findings that help the manageability industry make informed decisions about protocol adoption based on real-world performance characteristics rather than theoretical advantages.
