Netflix contributes RxJava

Somehow I missed this earlier: Functional Reactive in the Netflix API with RxJava by Ben Christensen. It begins:

Our recent post on optimizing the Netflix API introduced how our web service endpoints are implemented using a "functional reactive programming" (FRP) model for composition of asynchronous callbacks from our service layer.

This post takes a closer look at how and why we use the FRP model and introduces our open source project RxJava – a Java implementation of Rx (Reactive Extensions).
