The NIO (New IO) package is the foundation for Reactive programming in Java. Reactive programming is not new in application development. When it comes to huge volumes of data or concurrent hits, we often need asynchronous processing to make our systems fast and responsive. Along with being asynchronous, our systems must work on streams (continuous sequence of events) ...
