Is gRPC reliable for production?

[Constantine]

Hi guys :)

We want to launch a new service based on gRPC. Our server stack uses nodejs and our clients are android and iOS. After doing some codes and reviewing the threads in this group, I don't know that we can rely on the gRPC or not?  my main questions are:

1. Are all clients library support the same functionality?
2. Is it possible to use gRPC for mobile applications or the best case is to use it for micro-service or distributed applications? I mean the same performance.(regardless of tuning tools in each case )
3. Is there any real production level project using gRPC?? 
   

Thank you :)

To answer your first two questions:

1. All of the client libraries support the same basic functionality. There is some variance in which advanced features are implemented in each language, but that should decrease over time.
2. There are client libraries for gRPC on both Android and iOS, so mobile applications are definitely a supported use case for gRPC.

There are many companies now using in production in data centers like including Square, Netflix, Juniper, CoreOS, Cockroachdb and more and on mobile like YikYak, VSCO, Google apps like Allo, Duo and more. So, I wouldnt be concerned about 2 and 3.  On 1, was there a specific feature in Andorid or iOS library that you are worried about?

Thank you Varun :)
about 1, I feel(not sure :) ) that maybe in some clients, all features are not supported. like client disconnections. In this group, I saw some topics about it, it seems that is not fully supported in all clients.( as I know )
