Projects

Adaptive gRPC Compression

Go / gRPC / LinUCB / Contextual Bandits
  • Reduced p95 RPC latency 61.7% across 161K calls by training LinUCB to select gzip/zstd from runtime context.
  • Saved 863.7M payload bytes (56.7%) across 161K RPCs by adapting compression to entropy and CPU load.
  • Achieved 1.38 µs decision latency by embedding bounded LinUCB inference in Go and streaming gRPC interceptors.
