ReentrantUnderstand Synchronizers in Java Concurrency Library In Depth[2]: ReentrantReadWriteLockReentrantReadWriteLock provides separate locks for reading and writing operations. Fine-grained locking improves throughput if read-heavy.Jan 1Jan 1
Understand Synchronizers in Java Concurrency Library In Depth[1]: ReentrantLockReentrantLock in Java Standard Library is one of the most important mechanisms provided by Java for concurrent programming.Dec 18, 2023Dec 18, 2023
Java Synchronized vs ReentrantLock: Which Lock Should I Use Really?Compare the two lock mechanisms from a feature and performance perspective. Is the answer the classical “It depends”?Nov 27, 20233Nov 27, 20233
Server Architectures Overview Series (5): LMAX DisruptorsThe LMAX Disruptors is a low latency high throughput concurrent request handling model. We see how to use it with a simple Echo Server.Nov 20, 2023Nov 20, 2023
Server Architecture Overview Series (4): Actor ModelWe create an echo server to show that actor model servers handle client request differently from thread based models.Nov 13, 2023Nov 13, 2023
Server Architectures Overview Series (3): Staged Event-Driven ArchitectureThe staged event-driven architecture was proposed to improve event-driven model by splitting into stages and managing resources separately.Nov 6, 2023Nov 6, 2023
Server Architectures Overview Series (2): Event-Driven ArchitectureCompared to multi-threaded servers, event-driven uses limited threads, nonblocking I/O and multiplexing channels to achieve good performanceNov 1, 2023Nov 1, 2023
Server Architectures Overview Series (1): Client-Server Model and Multi-Threaded ArchitectureThis series shows classical server architectures. This one is the multi-threaded architecture from one request per thread to thread pools.Oct 30, 2023Oct 30, 2023
