Remote Procedure Call

Remote Procedure Call (RPC) is a technology that allows a computer program to request and execute a function or procedure on a different computer over a network, as if it were happening locally. It hides the complexity of network communication, so users and developers can focus on what the program should do rather than how it communicates. Think of it like calling a remote service or method that is hosted elsewhere, seamlessly exchanging data and instructions to perform tasks across different systems. RPC enables distributed computing, making it easier to build complex, interconnected software applications.
