Welcome to the R2DBC wiki!
R2DBC is an endeavor to bring a reactive programming API to relational data stores.
The R2DBC specification aims for establishing an interface with a minimal API surface to integrate with relational databases using a reactive programming model. The most significant goals are honoring and embracing the properties of reactive programming:
- Non-blocking I/O
- Deferred execution
- Treat application control as a series of events (data, errors, completion)
- No longer assume control of resources but leave resource scheduling to the runtime/platform („React to resource availability“)
- Efficient usage of resources
- Leave flow control to be handled by the runtime
- Stream-oriented data consumption
- Functional programming within operators
- Remove assumptions over concurrency from the programming model and leave this aspect up the runtime
- Use back-pressure to allow flow control, to defer the actual execution and to not overwhelm consumers
This wiki and the README document contains a lot of information, please take your time and read these instructions carefully.
Be sure to read the CONTRIBUTING guidelines before reporting a new issue or open a pull request.
