Explore Finagle, an extensible RPC system for the JVM, in this 43-minute conference talk from Scala Days Copenhagen 2017. Gain insight into core Finagle concepts and their practical applications. Learn about the "your server as function" principle, implementing dynamic request routing with Dtabs, and creating generic request contexts. Discover how to define services, use Scrooge for code generation, and work with servers and clients. Understand important properties, destination changes, and HTTP Dtab headers. Dive into contexts and explore next steps with provided resources to enhance your understanding of this high-concurrency server construction tool.
