1.15.0 (latest) 1.14.0 1.13.0 1.12.0 1.11.2 1.10.0 1.9.1 1.8.5 1.7.0 1.6.0 1.5.0 1.4.3 1.3.2 1.2.0 1.1.3 1.0.1 0.1.1 **NOTE** : Because this client uses [`grpc`](https://grpc.github.io/grpc/python/grpc.html#module-grpc) library, it is safe to
share instances across threads. In multiprocessing scenarios, the best
practice is to create client instances *after* the invocation of
[`os.fork()`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.fork) by [`multiprocessing.pool.Pool`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.pool.Pool) or
[`multiprocessing.Process`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/multiprocessing.html#multiprocessing.Process).
