Introduction to RxScala

Nowadays, developing an application is not that much easier by following old design principles, design patterns, architectures, and technologies. We should develop our new systems to do the following things:

Our system should support today's multicore processor architecture
Our system should support Multicluster, Distributed, and Cloud environments
Our system should support today's big data environments
Our system should support very quick response to customer requests
Our system should support high traffic or a huge amount of users; that is, it should support heavy loads
Our system should be available all the time
Our system should utilize resources effectively

A Reactive system supports all these features easily. In this book, a Reactive system means developing our system or application by following the Reactive Manifesto principles.

A Reactive system may be a Reactive web application, Reactive microservice, and more.

To support all the preceding features, our programming...

Learn Scala Programming

Today's Scala is quite different from its earlier versions. The second version of the language is more than twelve years old and has undergone multiple changes related to supported features and library implementation. This book addresses both technical and architectural changes by providing a comprehensive guide to the redesigned standard library and collections as well as covering in-depth type system and first-level support for functions. Finally, you will build projects using the knowledge learned previously to build microservices and learn how to implement them with Scala and Lagom framework.
