# proto-buf-python
2+
3+
Protocol buffers (Protobuf) are a language-agnostic data serialization format developed by Google.
4+
5+
**Low data volume:** Protobuf makes use of a binary format, which is more compact than other formats such as JSON.
6+
7+
**Persistence:** Protobuf serialization is backward-compatible. This means that you can always restore previous data, even if the interfaces have changed in the meantime.
8+
9+
**Design by contract:** Protobuf requires the specification of messages using explicit identifiers and types.
10+
11+
**Requirement for gRPC:** gRPC (gRPC Remote Procedure Call) is an efficient remote procedure call system that makes use of the Protobuf format.
