Is it OK to use gRPC to push data?

Question

I\'m wondering if it\'s a good idea to push data from gRPC server to a client. Basically I want to use a pub/sub pattern with gRPC. The way I do is that I return a response

Answer 1

gRPC is intended to be used in this way.

You should still consider how the client should behave on failures and how you may want to re-balance across backends. If your connection is going across the Internet, you may also want to enable keepalive to detect connection breakages by providing KeepaliveParams to the client and server.
