Course Description
Overview
Explore the implications of Project Loom in this 41-minute conference talk by Dr. Heinz Kabutz at Devoxx. Gain insights into how Project Loom aims to simplify concurrency in Java, moving away from reactive or asynchronous systems towards a model with numerous virtual threads. Discover potential challenges, such as handling long-running or blocking tasks, and learn strategies for forcing task termination. Investigate the impact of Project Loom on existing concurrent data structures like ConcurrentHashMap. Get a brief introduction to Project Loom and learn how to prepare your codebase for easier migration. Examine the effects of long-running tasks on system liveness and identify code areas that may require refactoring to be Loom-ready. Equip yourself with the knowledge to navigate the upcoming changes in Java concurrency.
