Finagle VS Conc

Not sure about now but a few years back the company I worked for was heavily vested in Finagle [1] using Future pools. I'm sure virtual threads would only enhance this framework. Also, Spring and it's reactive webflux would probably benefit as well [2].

Don't really see how "enterprise scala" has anything to do with this, scala is meant to be parallelized , that's like it's whole thing with akka / actors / twitter's finagle (https://twitter.github.io/finagle/). Source: about 1 year ago

You can even see it mentioned in Finagle's project, which is what Twitter uses https://twitter.github.io/finagle/. Source: over 1 year ago

RPC generally means server side calls, probably this https://twitter.github.io/finagle/, and XHR is not RPC. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

It's a pity Go didn't have structured concurrency: https://vorpus.org/blog/notes-on-structured-concurrency-or-go-statement-considered-harmful/ There's a library for it: https://github.com/sourcegraph/conc But this goes to one of the things I've been kind of banging on about languages, which is that if it's not in the language, or at least the standard... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

What are possible use cases for this tool? Why would I want to find out the total runtime of all videos in a directory? Also, you might wanna limit concurrency[0] instead of spawning many ffprobe instances at the ~same time.

While virtual threads will be stable in Java 21, Structured Concurrency is still a preview feature. You probably won't see it in production anytime soon. Preview features require a special flag when compiling and running them, and they won't run on newer versions of the JVM. I don't expect to see StructuredTaskScope in common production use before the next LTS version is out. But it doesn't mean you cannot have... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

I'm also a fan of Conc for managing various different concurrency patterns -- don't create manual worker pools for locally distributed tasks if you can use Conc, etc. Source: 11 months ago

I will probably be using more conc too now. Lots of great primitives for dealing with multiple functions returning the same types or errors etc. Source: about 1 year ago
