Java 应用程序与 node.js 服务器通信的最佳反应方式

Question

I need a node.js server to run a third-party library which is great at interacting reactively with the ethereum blockchain. They don't have a Java implementation but my application is Java-based.

I need to make a call from my JVM container to the node.js container and have the result returned in a reactive way.

Which pattern/protocol should I use to implement this effectively? eg A message bus, websockets, REST?

Answer 1

There are a lot of theories about it, and it is also hard identifying which is the "best protocol" for it; it really depends by the use cases. In my company we have several microservices fully reactive that are communicating between each other via Websocket (using Webflux, Spring 5).

In your case (without the use cases I can't be detailed) the main benefit of using Websocket is the entire server is acting in an entirely reactive way, with a completely reactive stack.
