RxJava 2: Reactive Programming in Java

RxJava 2: Reactive Programming in Java focuses on providing an understanding of the fundamental principles and technologies that are used in reactive programming. In this course you will learn about:

· Understand the basics of Reactive Programming

· Discuss the advantages and limitations of RxJava Observables

· Write a client application capable of handling Reactive events

· Develop unit tests to properly test Observable implementations (Using JUnit 5)

· Apply operators to event streams to filter, modify and combine the objects emitted by event publishers

· Select the appropriate type of Event Source (Single, Maybe, Completable, Observable and Flowable)

· Implement event sources using one of the many factory methods of the RxJava 2 API

· Use Subjects, acting as both event consumers and event source

· Use both Cold and Hot Observables

· Work with RxJava Scheduler instances to defines the thread pools on which event producers and consumers operate

· Properly divide the functionality over multiple threads

· Write test classes that deal with asynchronous RxJava implementations

· Deal with backpressure problems in reactive programming

· Solve the problem of with slow event consumers

· Implement alternatives to event caching

· Deal with exceptions in Reactive streams

· Retry registration to event streams in Exceptional situations
