As we all know buffers play an important role anywhere specially in the programming industry.
That's why there are a lot of those that were made. One good example is the Protobuf or shall we say Protocol Buffer.
Protocol Buffers
are Google's language-neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanism for serializing structured data – think XML, but smaller, faster, and simpler.
In addition to, it is something like
you define how you want your data to be structured once, then you can use special generated source code to easily write and read your structured data to and from a variety of data streams and using a variety of languages.
Protocol Buffers are available in different languages like Java, Python, Objective-C and c++ but as time goes by, it's being modified new versions which can work with more languages already.
How to Use: (Sample Code)
message Person {
required string name = 1;
required int32 id = 2;
optional string email = 3;
}
There are more interesting thing to do with Protobuf. All you have to do is to download and install the protocol buffer directly to your system. But it is encouraged to first read their tutorials and documentations to give an idea how the buffer works.

Thank you for posting on Steemhunt!
However, your post has been delisted on Steemhunt because it does not meet the following posting guidelines.
hmm, not sure why you post this, protocol buffers were originally made in 2008 from google.. https://github.com/google/protobuf - the url should have been the github but even then it's like a decade old, sorry i've had to hide this -- it's less about a product and more about an infrastructure, same way as say a lot of apps use XML files or JSON for operation parameters.

your correct it is an open source tool BUT from 2008 with updates over the last DECADE.
