Does gRPC require http 2?

gRPC uses HTTP/2 as its transfer protocol, so it inherits some great features that HTTP/2 offers, such as binary framing, which is high performance and robust, lighter to transport and safer to decode compared to other text-based protocols. And because it's binary, it's a great combination with protocol buffer.

What is the difference between https and http 2?

HTTPS secures the connection between a visitor's browser and the web server, ensuring data is encrypted and protected from intermediary actions. HTTP/2 allows for multiplexing (requesting multiple files at the same time). This significantly improves both site performance and server efficiency.
