* Build a server that can talk in multiple protocols (**on same port**), or access all sorts of services
* restful http/https, h2/h2c (compatible with [grpc](https://github.com/grpc/grpc), will be opensourced soon). using http in brpc is much more friendly than [libcurl](https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/).
*[redis](docs/cn/redis_client.md) and [memcached](docs/cn/memcache_client.md), thread-safe, more friendly and performant than the official clients
*[rtmp](https://github.com/brpc/brpc/blob/master/src/brpc/rtmp.h)/[flv](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_Video)/[hls](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Live_Streaming), for building live-streaming services.

* hadoop_rpc(not opensourced yet)
*[rdma](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_direct_memory_access) support via [openucx](https://github.com/openucx/ucx)(will be opensourced soon)
* all sorts of protocols used in Baidu: baidu_std, [streaming_rpc](docs/cn/streaming_rpc.md), hulu_pbrpc, [sofa_pbrpc](https://github.com/baidu/sofa-pbrpc), nova_pbrpc, public_pbrpc, ubrpc, and nshead-based ones.
You can build live-streaming services using APIs on rtmp/flv/hls offered by brpc. The [live streaming service](https://cloud.baidu.com/product/lss.html) of [Baidu cloud](https://cloud.baidu.com) is using media-server, which is a specialized server for hosting or proxying live streams from different customers.
