 * Provider of servers for transport agnostic consumption.

 * <p>Implementations can be automatically discovered by gRPC via Java's SPI mechanism. For
 * automatic discovery, the implementation must have a zero-argument constructor and include
 * a resource named {@code META-INF/services/io.grpc.ServerProvider} in their JAR. The
 * file's contents should be the implementation's class name.
 *
 * <p>Implementations <em>should not</em> throw. If they do, it may interrupt class loading. If
 * exceptions may reasonably occur for implementation-specific reasons, implementations should
 * generally handle the exception gracefully and return {@code false} from {@link #isAvailable()}.
