New Concurrency Utilities in Java 8

Explore the new concurrency utilities introduced in Java 8 through this conference talk delivered by Angelika Langer at GOTO Berlin 2014. Dive deep into CompletableFuture, the most significant addition, and learn how it enhances the capabilities of the regular Future interface for asynchronous task execution and result retrieval. Discover how CompletableFuture supports waiting for results, chaining of asynchronous operations, and exception handling in multi-threaded environments. Gain insights into other concurrency-related improvements in Java 8 and understand their practical applications in developing robust, concurrent Java applications. Perfect for Java developers looking to leverage the latest concurrency features to build more efficient and scalable software systems.
