The guide-rpc-framework is a Java implementation of a Remote Procedure Call (RPC) framework built on Netty, Kyro (for serialization), and Zookeeper (for service discovery and coordination). It’s aimed primarily at learners and practitioners of distributed systems who want to see how you might build an RPC system from first principles rather than just use an existing library. The project provides code for client-side stubs, server-side skeletons, method dispatching, serialization, load balancing, and node management via Zookeeper. Since RPC remains a foundational building block in microservices, server architectures, and high-performance systems, this codebase helps you trace how requests are framed, routed, serialized, and executed across nodes. Because it integrates key pieces of the ecosystem (Netty event loops, Kyro object graphs, Zookeeper coordination), you also gain exposure to that stack.
Features
- Netty-based network server and client with custom RPC method invocation semantics
- Kyro serialization of request/response payloads for efficient binary transfer
- Zookeeper integration for service registration, discovery, and coordination
- Method dispatching and load-balancing across registered service nodes
- Clear code structure with comments and tutorials designed for learning
- Suitable for building simple RPC services, studying microservice internals, or prototypes
