Spring Batch: Multi-File Input and Virtual Threads support. Ep: 1

In this video we are going to explore how to process multiple input files from a directory as a single unit of work. For example: Our business team provides daily reports which are composed by multiple files and for every single dat we need to process all the files as one atomic operation. In that case we are going to use different approaches that spring batch offers to us. We are going to use also Virtual threads in order to process it concurrently to boost the performance.

These tutorials are awesome.
Thank you.

Just working on a batch right now. This video explains multisource processing in a very straightforward and simple way. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me. The context is that I need to gather information from input resources and supplement it with additional data obtained by calling an external API (within the processor), which will be written to a raw file later on. Although I've already accomplished this, I'm now considering the feasibility of incorporating asynchronous processing into the entire workflow. This is because I need to implement a database cache to avoid redundant API calls when the information is already mirrored in the database from a previous API call. I anticipate potential challenges with asynchronous behavior in this scenario. Thank you in advance!

Hi sensei, do you have the repo for this class?

It's a great session on spring batch, I'm bit confused with thread concept, agreed threads got created but they are executed one after the other, there is no parallel processing isn't it?
