Our Verdict
Efficient Java Multithreading and Concurrency with Executors is an informative course addressing modern multithreading needs while incorporating fundamental Threads API concepts. However, it may struggle to maintain engagement due to pacing issues, a desire for more real-world use cases, and an occasionally brusque instructor. Though not perfect, this course remains a worthwhile venture into Java's multithreaded world.
What We Liked
- Provides a comprehensive exploration of the Executors framework, going beyond basic usage to cover pro techniques and potential pitfalls.
- Well-paced lessons challenge learners while remaining easy to understand, with concepts explained first using Threads API before transitioning to Executors.
- Plenty of examples demonstrate various ways of solving similar tasks using both Threads and Executors, providing a valuable overview.
Potential Drawbacks
- Pacing can be uneven in some sections, leading to repetition or unnecessary verbosity in coding demonstrations.
- Lack of real-world scenarios as context for the techniques covered leaves some learners wanting more practical applications.
- Instructor occasionally responds tersely when questioned, potentially leaving students feeling unsupported.
