Do we have everything to build enterprise grade reactive applications? How to we produce readable and maintainable code? We will explain which framework we use in our microservice platform for a cryptocurrency trading application, why we chose reactive programming and which issue we ran into. This is the complete overview of reactive programming in Java.
