RSocket Paradigms

RSocket starts with the premise of a socket. Sockets are tried-and-true mechanisms to open connections, transmit data, receive data, and continue. RSocket simply puts a different API on top of this channel.

But first, it’s important to understand the paradigms of RSocket:

• Request/response (stream of 1.)
• Request/stream (finite stream of many.)
• Fire-and-forget (no response.)
• Channel (bidirectional.)
