SOAP is a shitty implementation of a perfectly good idea.

GRPC, for example, is a vast improvement over JSON+REST.

YMMV with Swagger, as I've never tried it.

GRPC is fantastic.

You define a few data types to communicate about, and call procedures remotely with them. I mean it’s right there in the name!

Unfortunately it doesn’t come with a Methodology you can cram your business or research problem into. It just wants to talk about your problem. Way too on-the-nose for many tastes.

It needs a religion attached, then masses will follow.
