What's Looming in Spring?
Conference (INTERMEDIATE level)
Gallery Hall
With Java 21 supporting Virtual Threads as part of the Project Loom initiative, developers can see a direct impact on scaling their servers with little effort. What better way to realize this than seeing the power of virtual threads in action in one of the most popular and highly used frameworks? In this talk, Dr. Venkat Subramaniam and Josh Long will discuss the power of virtual threads and illustrate how your services implemented on top of Spring Boot will directly reap the benefits.
