Key Features
Book Description
This book is a must-have tutorial for software developers aiming to write concurrent programs in Scala, or broaden their existing knowledge of concurrency.This book is intended for Scala programmers that have no prior knowledge about concurrent programming, as well as those seeking to broaden their existing knowledge about concurrency. Basic knowledge of the Scala programming language will be helpful. Readers with a solid knowledge in another programming language, such as Java, should find this book easily accessible.
What you will learn
- Get to grips with the fundamentals of concurrent programming on modern multiprocessor systems, with a particular focus on the JVM concurrency model
- Build highperformance concurrent systems from simple, lowlevel concurrency primitives
- Express asynchrony in concurrent computations with futures and promises
- Seamlessly accelerate sequential programs by using dataparallel collections
- Implement reactive and eventbased programs declaratively with Rxstyle event streams
- Design safe, scalable, and easytocomprehend inmemory transactional data models
- Transparently create distributed applications that scale across multiple machines
- Choose the correct concurrency abstraction and integrate different concurrency frameworks together in large applications
