The document discusses reactive programming and introduces Spring WebFlux as a framework built on reactive principles. It highlights the key attributes of reactive programming, such as responsiveness and resilience, and outlines the features and components of Spring WebFlux compared to traditional Spring MVC. Additionally, it emphasizes the non-blocking nature of Spring WebFlux and its support for different programming models.

3. What is reactive programming?
- Reactive Programming is a programming paradigm.
- Meets today’s demands.
- Lays the foundation of Reactive Systems.
- Makes systems more flexible, scalable.

4. What is reactive programming?
- Four key attributes:
1. Responsive.
2. Resilient.
3. Elastic.
4. Message Driven.

the architecture choices

5. What is reactive programming?
- Message Driven
1. Failures as Messages.
2. Back Pressure.
3. Non-Blocking.

6. What is reactive programming?
- Use cases
1. External Service Calls.
2. Highly Concurrent Message Consumers.
3. Spreadsheets.
4. ...

7. Introduction to Spring WebFlux
- New framework of Spring 5.
- A part of Reactive stack.
- Embraces Reactive Streams and Reactor.

8. Introduction to Spring WebFlux
+ A standard and specification for Stream-oriented libraries.
+ Consists of four API components:
- Reactive Streams.
1. Publisher.
2. Subscriber.
3. Subscription.
4. Processor.
public interface Publisher<T> {
public void subscribe(Subscriber<? Super T> s);
}
public interface Subscriber<T> {
public void onSubscribe(Subscription s);
public void onNext(T t);
public void onError(Throwable t);
public void onComplete();
}
public interface Subscription<T> {
public void request(long n);
public void cancel();
}
public interface Processor<T, R> extends Subscriber<T>, Publisher<R> {
}
Publisher Subscriber
On Subscribe:
Request N items
Pushes N items
End
Publisher

9. Introduction to Spring WebFlux
- Uses Reactor internally.
+ A Reactive Streams implementation.
+ A fully non-blocking foundation.

12. Features of Spring WebFlux
- Comparison:
Spring MVC Spring WebFlux
Concurrency model
Thread usage
Memory usage
Processing time
At large scale
Slightly less Slightly more (less in parallel)
Quickly much degraded
performance
Slightly degraded performance
More blocked & slow request
process threads
Bigger data queues
Blocking
More non-blocking & fast
request process threads
Smaller data queues
Event-based loop workers

13. Features of Spring WebFlux
- Supports two distinct programming models:
+ Annotation-based.
+ Functional, Java 8 lambda style.
