# Concurrency | ||
|
||
In general, gRPC-go provides a concurrency-friendly API. What follows are some | ||
guidelines. | ||
|
||
## Clients | ||
|
||
A [ClientConn][client-conn] can safely be accessed concurrently. Using | ||
[helloworld][helloworld] as an example, one could share the `ClientConn` across | ||
multiple goroutines to create multiple `GreeterClient` types. In this case, RPCs | ||
would be sent in parallel. | ||
|
||
## Streams | ||
|
||
When using streams, one must take care to avoid calling either `SendMsg` or | ||
`RecvMsg` multiple times against the same [Stream][stream] from different | ||
goroutines. In other words, it's safe to have a goroutine calling `SendMsg` and | ||
another goroutine calling `RecvMsg` on the same stream at the same time. But it | ||
is not safe to call `SendMsg` on the same stream in different goroutines, or to | ||
call `RecvMsg` on the same stream in different goroutines. | ||
|
||
## Servers | ||
|
||
Each RPC handler attached to a registered server will be invoked in its own | ||
goroutine. For example, [SayHello][say-hello] will be invoked in its own | ||
goroutine. The same is true for service handlers for streaming RPCs, as seen | ||
in the route guide example [here][route-guide-stream]. | ||
