Explanation
Note: The provided answer only lists "A," but since this is a "choose two" question, both A and D are correct.
A is correct because gRPC specifications (such as those governing gRPC-over-HTTP/3) exist as IETF drafts - proposals under active development but not yet ratified as full standards. D is correct because gRPC was developed by Google and released as an open source project under the Apache 2.0 license, now hosted by the CNCF.
B is wrong because gRPC has not been formally ratified as an IETF standard - it remains at draft status. C is wrong because gRPC runs over HTTP/2 (not SSH); SSH is a secure shell protocol used for remote access, not API communication.
Memory tip: Think "Google Drafted it Open source" - gRPC came from Google (open source = D), and its specs live in IETF Drafts (A), not finished standards.
