Introduction to Spring Webflux
Spring Webflux is a part of the larger Spring Framework that caters to building reactive applications. In a world where non-blocking and asynchronous execution models have become pivotal for handling a large number of concurrent connections, Spring Webflux offers a solution. It leverages the Reactive Streams API for data flow control and back pressure, ensuring efficient resource utilization and improved scalability.
Reactive Programming with Spring Webflux
Reactive programming is an asynchronous programming paradigm concerned with data streams and the propagation of change. It enables developers to build systems that are resilient, elastic, and message-driven. Spring Webflux uses Project Reactor, a Reactive library for building non-blocking applications, to underpin its reactive capabilities.
Functional Endpoints in Spring Webflux
Functional endpoints offer a more functional style of declaring routes and handling requests, contrasting with the annotation-based approach seen in Spring MVC. This model emphasizes immutability and statelessness, providing a concise way to define routing and handling logic.
