Going Reactive with Java 8

Java 8’s lambdas make building Reactive applications a whole lot easier and cleaner.  Through copious code examples this session will show you how to build event-driven, scalable, resilient, and responsive applications with Java 8, Play Framework and Akka.  On the web side you will learn about using lambdas for async & non-blocking requests & WebSockets.  You will also learn how the actor model in Akka pairs well with lambdas to create an event-driven foundation that provides concurrency, clustering and fault-tolerance.
