The PHP use case is as follows: - Your frontend client (e.g. browser, mobile) is hitting your Nginx reverse proxy - Perhaps that's a PHP script that the user is requesting. Nginx is launching a fastcgi process to run your PHP script. - This PHP script can be used as a gRPC client itself, to communicate further with a gRPC backend server that could have been implemented in any language.
Hope that helps.
