Abstract
Modern software application development imposes standards regarding high performance, scalability, and minimal system latency. Multi-threading asynchronous programming is one of the standard solutions proposed by the industry for achieving such objectives. However, the recent introduction of the reactive programming interface in Java presents a potential alterna-tive approach for addressing such challenges, promising performance improvements while minimizing resource utilization.
The research examines the migration process from the asynchronous paradigm to the reactive paradigm, highlighting the implications, benefits, and challenges resulting from this transition. To this end, the architecture, technologies, and design of a support application will be pre-sented, designed to outline the practical aspects of this experimental process while closely monitoring the phased migration. The results are examined in terms of functional equivalence, testing, and comparative analysis of response times and resource utilization, as well as the cases where the reactive paradigm proves to be a solution worth considering. Additionally, possible directions for further research and development are presented.
This paper not only investigates the design and implementation process but also sets a foundation for future research and innovation in dependable systems, collaborative technologies, sustainable solutions, and distributed system architecture.
