Are You Missing a Data Frame? The Power of Data Frames in Java - Vlad Zakharov

ABOUT THE SESSION

Finding that traditional data structures just aren't cutting it? The Java Collections Framework and tools like Eclipse Collections are useful but can fall short in complex scenarios. Defining domain classes can help, but frequent data and business logic changes make refactoring a constant hassle. Alternatives like map-oriented programming often result in cumbersome and hard-to-read code. Enter data frames. They combine the efficiency of collection frameworks with the ease of grouping and transforming data. Join me for a talk and code demo to see how data frames can simplify tasks like data transformation, enrichment, validation, and reconciliation in your Java projects. You'll learn how to streamline your workflows and handle data more effectively.
