A Java 8 Lambda Is All You Need for Distributed Background Jobs

Discover the power of JobRunr, a free and open-source library for background processing in Java, in this 44-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Learn how to transform Java 8 lambdas into distributed background tasks, enabling you to run any job at any time on any JVM. Explore key functionalities such as job persistence, automatic retries, and scaling up in Kubernetes environments. Gain insights into the embedded dashboard and its compatibility with GraalVM. By the end of this humoristic session, understand how JobRunr can simplify your scheduling solutions, allowing you to focus on delivering value to end users rather than repeatedly implementing complex scheduling systems for CPU-intensive tasks, I/O-heavy operations, or background jobs.
