I'd advise specifically against using Protobuf -- Google's support for Python seems to be pretty bad.


I've worked with protobufs in Python a bit, although not in production, and it seems fine. What trouble have you run into?


Well, the Protobuf PyPI package (which is two versions out of date) has not been able to be installed by Pip for over 3 years now. And yes, this is a known bug.


MessagePack looks quite interesting (http://msgpack.org/) and seems to have quite a lot of binding (I don't the support level on each one though)
