RxJava VS Vert.x

RxJava Documentation

3. RxJava This repository contains the source code for ReactiveX, a library used to create asynchronous and event-based programs with observable sequences. https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava

Is this similar RxJava, the reactive extensions library for https://github.com/ReactiveX/RxJava ? I have made that work in Clojure in production.

Since you mentioned java, there is RxJava and RxAndroid. Google general recommendation now is to use kotlin coroutines if you're considering writing your app with that.

It's very quick though. In terms of the correctness of the syntax, I've never seen an issue while translating a single file or a single function. When I took the entire RxJava code base 5 years ago, right clicked on the source folder and converted to Kotlin, I found lots of problems. File by file I've never seen any issues though, but I also haven't done it much.

You all beat me to MapStruct and Testcontainers. Honorable mention to RxJava, which I use in Desktop apps.

Vert.x is the layer where Floci uses things directly. It's Netty with ergonomics: an event loop, a router, protocol-specific APIs for HTTP, DNS, TCP, WebSockets, gRPC, all sharing the same threading model.

Traditionally, JDBC interfaces are all synchronous, so JdbcTemplate and HibernateTemplate are also synchronous. But as asynchronous high-concurrency programming spreads, reactive programming has entered mainstream frameworks. Spring now proposes the R2DBC standard, and the vertx framework includes asynchronous connectors for MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc. On the other hand, if an ORM engine acts as a data fusion access engine, its storage might be async-supported NoSQL sources (Redis, ElasticSearch, MongoDB). ORM also needs to cooperate with a GraphQL async execution engine. Given these, NopOrm’s OrmTemplate adds an asynchronous invocation mode:

The sixth release candidate of Eclipse Vert.x 5.0.0 provides support for the Java Platform Module System and a new VerticleBase class. Further details are available in the release notes.

I see your point, but I still don't think you can just say "If you want to get get a job as a Go developer, you must know gRPC." Even more so for Kafka, I've only heard about it being popular in the Java world. You can't even say "If you want to get a job as a Java developer, you must know Spring." Nowadays, sane Java projects use https://vertx.io, it's just too good. I would argue that Spring is for legacy projects only.

Vert.x is a toolkit for developing reactive applications on the JVM. I wrote a short introductory post about it earlier, when I used it for a commercial project. I had to revisit a Vert.x-based hobby project a few weeks ago, and I learned that there were some gaps in my knowledge about how Vert.x handles failures and errors. To fill those gaps, I did some experiments, wrote a few tests, and then wrote this blog post.

It's actively maintained with full time developers, performant, supports Kotlin out of the box, and has more features?

Hibernate Reactive integrates with Vert.x, but an extension allows to bridge to Project Reactor if wanted

Have you looked at Vert.x?

Explicitly so:
