Reactor Wiki

Reactor is a foundation for asynchronous applications on the JVM. It provides abstractions for Java, Groovy and other JVM languages to make building event and data-driven applications easier. It’s also really fast. On modest hardware, it’s possible to process around 15,000,000 events per second with the fastest non-blocking Dispatcher. Other dispatchers are available to provide the developer with a range of choices from thread-pool style, long-running task execution to non-blocking, high-volume task dispatching.

Installation

Maven artifacts are available in the SpringSource snapshot and milestone repositories. To use Reactor in your own project, add these repositories to your build file’s repository definitions. For a Gradle project, this would be:

Repository Declarations
