Mastering Platform Threads in Java 21 (v1.4)

Dive deep into the world of modern threading with Mastering Platform Threads in Java 21 , an advanced course designed for experienced Java developers. This hands-on program focuses on the intricacies of platform threads, leveraging new constructs introduced in Java 21 to build robust and high-performing concurrent applications.

Key Features:

  • Explore Threading Models: Understand the transition from preemptive to cooperative multithreading, and how platform threads underpin Java's threading architecture.
  • Concurrency Best Practices: Learn synchronization techniques, race condition management, and the Java Memory Model (JSR 133).
  • Advanced Thread Management: Utilize thread builders, thread states, and inter-thread communication mechanisms to control thread lifecycle and behavior.
  • Thread-Safe Designs: Implement solutions with synchronized blocks, locks, and atomic variables to ensure data integrity.
  • Threading with Executors: Master the use of thread pools, including modern constructs like `Executors.newVirtualThreadPerTaskExecutor()` and its applications in concurrent programming.
  • Real-World Challenges: Solve complex problems such as deadlocks, starvation, and thread contention, while adhering to best practices for scalable designs.

Who Should Attend:

This course is ideal for Java professionals who have a solid grasp of the basics of concurrency and are eager to deepen their understanding of modern threading paradigms in Java. It is especially relevant for developers working on performance-critical or multi-threaded applications. It is a good preparation for our Mastering Virtual Threads in Java Course.

Learning Outcomes:

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  1. Confidently utilize Java 21's threading enhancements in practical applications.
  2. Design and implement thread-safe algorithms and systems.
  3. Diagnose and resolve advanced concurrency issues like deadlocks and race conditions.
  4. Optimize resource utilization and application performance through efficient thread management.

Equip yourself with the skills to master concurrency in Java and build the next generation of scalable, reliable applications. Join us for this advanced exploration of threading and concurrency with Java 21!

Frequently Asked Questions


How long do I have access to a fully paid course?
How does lifetime access sound? After enrolling, you have unlimited access to this course for as long as you like - across any and all devices you own. Furthermore, if we move to another platform, we will offer you a free transfer of your account for all the courses that you have purchased.
Can I pay via PayPal?
Yes, you can for outright purchases, but not for recurring payments such as paying by installments.
Can I get back the EU VAT?
Absolutely. First off, be sure to enter the VAT number in the appropriate field during the payment process. Then contact Teachable and ask them to reimburse you the VAT.
May I share my login details with my colleagues?
Unfortunately not. The terms of usage are for a single license. Teachable tracks your progress through the curriculum, so you won't know how much you have watched. We offer discounts on bulk licenses by one company. Please contact us for bulk licensing.
May we use the course for running in-house courses?
You may, as long as each of the students in the class has a valid license for that course. For example, some companies run lunch time Design Patterns study groups using our material. This is an effective way to learn. Please contact us for bulk licensing.
What if I am unhappy with the course?
We would never want you to be unhappy! If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us in the first 14 days to tell us what you are unhappy about, and we will give you a full refund and deregister you from the course.
When does the course start and finish?
The course starts now and never ends! It is a completely self-paced online course - you decide when you start and when you finish. We do recommend putting time aside and setting goals to complete the course.
Can I watch the course offline during my commute?
Teachable have an iOS app that lets you watch offline. Android is not supported unfortunately.
