Java: WebFlux vs Virtual Threads
Answer
Defines interfaces like Publisher and Subscriber for handling data streams.
The Reactive Streams Specification standardizes asynchronous stream processing with non-blocking backpressure. Publishers emit data, and Subscribers consume it. For example, a price stream in an e-commerce app can be modeled with a Publisher emitting price updates and Subscribers rendering them in real time.
