Asynchronous Programming in Java

Both reactive and asynchronous apps are becoming more popular. But how do you build them? This course will teach you how to use the most recent concurrency techniques to create state-of-the-art Java applications. Asynchronous concurrency has become a critical part of Java development today, due to the growth of microservices (SOA) and service-oriented architecture (SOA). This video is for Java developers and software architects. It explains the differences between synchronous and asynchronous programming. The video then examines the problems Java programmers face when using different synchronous programming models. Finally, it dives deep into non-blocking, timeouts and circuit breakers as well as the different approaches to concurrency.
