Spring 5 (http://spring.io) major theme is Reactive Programming support, specifically, Reactive Streams. To fuel that revolution, the same OSS teams behind Spring and RxJava are working on an independent reactive engine: Project Reactor. In fact, it’s supporting a wide range of reactive new features from Spring MVC to Spring Data, Spring Cloud Streams, or even Kafka, Netty and CloudFoundry orchestration (!).

This session introduces Reactor 3 with practical examples. It will show how to write and test reactive applications or APIs that are backpressure-ready and resilient by design, going from callback hell to reactive well.
