Speaker: Konrad Malawski

Akka @Lightbend & Reactive Streams Committer

Akka hakker @ Lightbend, where he also participated in the Reactive Streams initiative and implemented it's Technology Compatibility Kit. Konrad is a late-night passionate dev living by the motto "Life is Study!". His favourite discussion topics range from distributed systems to capybaras. He has founded and run multiple user groups (Java, Scala, Computer Science, ...), as well as the awesome GeeCON conference, in Poland. Other than that, he maintains a number of Scala tools (such as sbt-jmh), and frequently speaks on distributed systems and concurrency topics at conferences all around the world. In those rare times he's not coding, he spreads the joy of computer science by helping local user groups and whitepaper reading clubs. He also holds number of titles, the most fun of which being Java One RockStar 2015.

Talk: Reactive Streams, j.u.concurrent, & Beyond!

Track: Java: Are You Ready for This?

Location: Ballroom BC

Day of week: Tuesday

Duration: 11:50am - 12:40pm

Reactive Streams are a cross-company initiative first ignited by Lightbend in 2013, soon to be joined by RxJava and other implementations focused on solving a very similar problem: asynchronous non-blocking stream processing, with guaranteed over-flow protection. Fast forward to 2016 and now these interfaces are part of JSR-266 and proposed for JDK9.

In this talk we'll first disambiguate what the word Stream means in this context (as it's been overloaded recently by various different meanings), then look at how its protocol works and how one might use it in the real world showing examples using existing implementations.

We'll also have a peek into the future, to see what the next steps for such collaborative protocols and the JDK ecosystem are in general.
