## What it is
NettyRPC is a high-performance Java RPC framework built on the Netty networking library, supporting multiple serialization codecs including JDK native, Kryo, Hessian, and Protostuff. It uses a master-slave Reactor thread model for parallel throughput, integrates with Spring for service lifecycle management, and provides JMX monitoring, async callbacks, and a web-based service interface viewer.

## Use cases
- build a high-performance RPC server in Java
- replace slow HTTP-based service calls with binary RPC
- serialize RPC messages with kryo, hessian, or protostuff
- manage RPC service registration and lifecycle through Spring
- monitor RPC server health via JMX
- handle long-running RPC calls with async callbacks
- expose service interface documentation over HTTP

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, self-contained Java RPC framework without heavy middleware dependencies
- your stack already uses Spring and Netty
- you want pluggable serialization codecs for performance tuning
- you need fine-grained control over server thread pool behavior and task rejection policies

## When to avoid
- you need cross-language RPC (gRPC, Thrift) or polyglot service meshes
- you want built-in service discovery, load balancing, or distributed tracing out of the box
- you need a framework with active community support and frequent releases
- your team prefers standardized protocols over custom binary codecs
