Explore the world of Akka Streams in this comprehensive 48-minute conference talk from Devoxx. Dive into the implementation of Reactive Streams for the JVM, learning how to process potentially infinite streams of data asynchronously and with bounded resources. Discover the three different Akka Streams APIs for building streaming graphs and understand their appropriate applications. Follow along as the speaker covers Reactive Streams fundamentals, demonstrates practical examples like "Numbers as a service" and back pressure over TCP, and uses creative analogies such as the tale of two pancake chefs to illustrate key concepts. Gain insights into built-in stages, GraphStage API, and the potential for distributed reactive systems, while also learning about the Akka Streams community and its evolution through a Reactive Streams timeline.
