Reactive Framework or Rx:
What is a button - in my opinion, a button is a collection of clicks.
Enumerable is a pull interface which block the consumer until it responds.
Observable is a push interface which leaves the consumer free, and the notifies him.
«You don´t say, give me the next click; you say, notify me when there are a click
Is a way to decouple the work between the consumer and the producer. You want to decouple your progress from the operations progress… What we are really doing is separate and formalize both the push and pull models.
The cloud:
The way I look at the cloud is mashing up services from different sources into a client. All these services, to get to them, you have to make an asynchronous call to get to them. No on the client you have to synchronize and orchestrate these different services…
Imaging I´m making to service calls or three to three different translation engines, and now I want to wait until two of the three have returned a result… With Rx thats easier.
We´re really «democratizing the cloud».
