Writing Customer Operators Reusing Operators Using compose() Implementing Advanced Operators Using lift() Summary 4.Applying Reactive Programming to Existing Applications From Collections to Observables BlockingObservable: Exiting the Reactive World Embracing Laziness Composing Observables Lazy paging and concatenation Imperative Concurrency flatMap0 as Asynchronous Chaining Operator Replacing Callbacks with Streams Polling Periodically for Changes Multithreading in RxJava What Is a Scheduler? Declarative Subscription with subscribeOn() subscribeOn0 Concurrency and Behavior Batching Requests Using groupBy() Declarative Concurrency with observeOn() Other Uses for Schedulers Summary 5.Reactive from Top to Bottom Beating the C1Ok Problem Traditional Thread-Based HTTP Servers Nonblocking HTTP Server with Netty and RxNetty Benchmarking Blocking versus Reactive Server Reactive HTTP Servers Tour HTTP Client Code Nonblocking HTTP Client with RxNetty Relational Database Access NOTIFY AND LISTEN on PostgreSQL Case Study CompletableFuture and Streams A Short Introduction to CompletableFuture Interoperability with CompletableFuture Observable versus Single Creating and Consuming Single Combining Responses Using zip, merge, and concat Interoperability with Observable and CompletableFuture When to Use Single?
