Loom is Blooming

Dive into the world of Java's Project Loom in this comprehensive conference talk. Explore the groundbreaking features of lightweight threads, known as virtual threads, and their impact on the Java platform. Learn how to create millions of threads in a single JVM, understand the cost-effective blocking mechanisms, and discover new concepts like structured concurrency, reactive programming, and asynchronous programming. Gain insights into ExtentLocal, StructuredExecutor, and synchronization techniques. Through extensive code demonstrations, see how Loom can revolutionize your coding practices and significantly boost performance in both applications and the Java Virtual Machine. Presented by Java experts José Paumard and Remi Forax, this talk offers a deep dive into the future of concurrent programming in Java.
