GRPC is a standard in all the ways that matter. It (or Thrift) is a breath of fresh air compared to doing it all by hand - write down your data types and function signatures, get something that you can actually call like a function (clearly separated from an actual function function - as it should be, it behaves differently - but usable like one). Get on with your business logic instead of writing serialisation/deserialisation boilerplate. GraphQL is even better.
