Overview: In this tutorial, I would like to introduce you to RSocket with Java, its interaction models and how it will be helpful for Microservices communication or client – server application development. RSocket: RSocket is a binary & message passing protocol over a single connection between client and server. It supports TCP, WebSockets and Aeron […]
Overview: In this tutorial, I would like to demo Reactor Buffer vs Window options for collecting the items in a reactive pipeline & doing operations in batches. If you are new to reactive programming or project reactor, take a look at this entire series to get a good idea on that. Reactor Buffer vs Window:
Overview: In this gRPC File Upload tutorial, I would like to show you how we could make use of gRPC client streaming feature to implement file upload functionality for your application. If you are new to gRPC, I request you to take a look at these articles first. Protocol Buffers – A Simple Introduction gRPC
Overview: In the distributed systems, we enable loose coupling between systems by passing messages via a service bus / message queue. We had implemented that in one of the architectural pattern series here. Sometimes, when the message throughout is extremely high – that is number of the incoming messages per unit time is greater than

Overview: Let’s consider a distributed application in which requests are processed as and when they arrive. Let’s also consider that these requests are time-consuming tasks triggered by user actions on our application. As tasks will take time to process, it is better to get these requests queued, we could process them sequentially and notify the
Overview: In the reactive programming series with project reactor, I would like to show you the difference between Reactor Repeat vs Reactor Retry. If you are new to reactive programming or project reactor, take a look at this entire series to get a good idea on that. Need For Reactor Repeat & Retry: As we
Overview: In this tutorial, I would like to show how to implement gRPC load balancing functionality to distribute the load across all the servers using Nginx. If you are new to gRPC, I request you to take a look at these articles first. Protocol Buffers – A Simple Introduction gRPC – An Introduction Guide gRPC
Overview: In this tutorial, I would like to show you the gRPC Spring Boot Integration for inter microservices communication. gRPC is a RPC framework implementation from google for client-server application development. We have discussed gRPC, protobuf and their advantages for inter microservices communication in these articles before. If you have not read them, check them
Overview: In this tutorial, I would like to introduce you to the modern RPC framework from google called gRPC. It is one of the hottest technologies right now! Need For gRPC: Microservices are the popular way to design distributed systems. A big monolith application is broken down into multiple independent Microservices. These Microservices have few
Overview: In this tutorial, I would like to introduce you to the Protobuf / Protocol Buffers – an interface definition language or interface description language (IDL)! IDL is a specification which describes software component’s API in a language-neutral way. Problems With JSON: In a distributed systems architecture, 1 microservice written in Java might want to
