As a Java developer, being able to create asynchronous systems allows you to develop very efficient applications, that need both throughput and performance. In this course, Java 8 Fundamentals: Asynchronous Programming Using CompletionStage, you will learn all the patterns brought to you by this API. First, you will learn the concepts of asynchronous programming: tasks, non-blocking calls and multi-threaded systems. Then, you will see how to build data processing pipelines where the completion of a first task automatically triggers the execution of a next task, passing data to it. Finally, you will see how to create performant systems by controlling the execution of each task in the right thread. Mastering all of this will help you in creating performant and error-free asynchronous systems with the only dependency being the JDK itself.
