NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Trial
Worth pursuing. It is important to understand how to build up this capability. Enterprises should try this technology on a project that can handle the risk.
Armeria is an open-source framework for building microservices. Our teams have used it to build asynchronous APIs, and we quite like the approach to address cross-cutting concerns, like distributed tracing or circuit breakers, via service decorators. The framework includes port reuse for both gRPC and REST traffic among other clever design choices. With Armeria, we can incrementally add new features in gRPC on top of an existing codebase in REST or vice versa. Overall, we find Armeria to be a flexible microservices framework with several out-of-the-box integrations.
