Java: Asynchronous HTTP
Answer
To prevent hanging requests and improve app responsiveness.
Timeouts in HTTP requests ensure that the application doesn't hang indefinitely waiting for a response, improving user experience and resource management. For instance, setting a timeout when requesting a product price update ensures that a slow response doesn't block further processing.
