Scaling Servers with Virtual Threads

Friday - May 2 1:15 PM EDT - ESSEX

Threads are lightweight, but do not scale well. That's one of the reasons we have been focused on the elastic capabilities on the cloud. Unfortunately that has an impact both on our environment and your companies wallet.

In this presentation we will learn how virtual threads reduce those impacts and help us to create scalable applications with minimum change to code.
