Question

Does anyone knows if there is a good service oriented framework (like Apache Thrift) that supports both C++, java and python with a similar set of features but with lighter requirement?

My main issue with thrift is that it requires boost (on the C++ side) that is a good, but too big, library.

Was it helpful?

Solution

I can think of a few alternatives, although I can't speak for how they compare to Thrift. All of these should have Java, C++, and Python implementations.

Google Protobuf

Apache Avro

Hessian

Of the three, I think Google's Protobuf seems the most promising and documented.
