With the prevalence of distributed systems, server less applications, and microservices, a greater emphasis is placed on asynchronous communication between applications and different parts of applications. One impact of asynchronous programming is scalability.
In this presentation we will take a few practical examples and see how asynchronous programming and a few modern developments can provide scalability with reduced resource demands. You can apply these ideas to your own applications, whether you are using, for example, Spring Boot or any other framework, and look at ways to attain better scale at reduced cost or resource usage.
