Presentations
Understanding JVM Futures
Starting with JDK 5, we have had Futures, and they mostly went ignored. Now with concurrency and reactive technology in demand, it is essential that we understand what futures are, and how to handle them and make use of their power in asynchronous systems.
Introduction to Reactive
Reactive is a the latest buzzword to consume our industry. This presentation distills and defines reactive systems, describe the difference between reactive architecture vs. reactive programming, describe common patterns, and demos the popular reactive JVM technologies like RXJava, and Akka.
RestFUL Web Services using Akka/HTTP
This session we discuss Akka/HTTP which wraps around the Akka's actor systems and Akka reactive streams to create scalable and resilient RestFUL web services.
Reactive Streaming with RXJava
ReactiveX is a set of Reactive Extensions developed by Netflix, and is developed for various programming languages, like Java, Scala, and Clojure. ReactiveX overhauls the observable design pattern to achieve reactive goals. This presentation will solely focus on the Java version of ReactiveX, RXJava.
