Immutable Collections in Java - Persistent Collections and Their Applications

Explore the world of immutable collections, particularly persistent collections, in this 42-minute conference talk by Paul Sandoz, Software Engineer at Oracle. Gain insights into the fundamental structure of persistent collections commonly used in JVM languages like Scala and Clojure, and recently introduced in the Java functional library vavr. Analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these collections, assess their performance, and evaluate their potential integration with existing Java platform APIs. By the end of the talk, acquire a solid understanding of how persistent collections function and determine if they are the right solution for your programming needs.
