With the advent of Reactive Programming and Virtual Threads, Java developers can scale Java database access using either option. This session explores how they can choose the proper database connectivity strategy per their specific requirements, focusing on performance, scalability, and simplicity. Using synchronous and asynchronous code, they will learn to take their Java database applications to the next level, using Reactive Relational Database Connectivity (R2DBC), Reactive Streams Ingestion (RSI), or JDBC with Virtual Threads.
