Reactive Systems Explained

Enterprises are busy transforming themselves by building applications capable of handling massive scale, enormous amounts of data, or both. The good news? There’s an unprecedented choice of open source technologies available to pursue these next-generation applications. In this report, enterprise architects and tech leads will examine the factors driving so many organizations to build reactive systems for cloud native development.
Grace Jansen and Peter Gollmar from IBM examine how the reactive architectural style enables microservices-driven applications to react better to their surroundings and to each other. You’ll learn the key patterns of reactive systems and draw distinctions between implementations offered by various toolkits and frameworks.
