Asynchronous processing of work is in the heart of any scalable system and interactive applications.

Over the years, the industry developed many techniques, frameworks, and patterns to make it easier for developers to add the asynchronicity to their code and .NET was no exception.

However, most of the innovation concentrated on a single work item and the concept of streams of data was given little attention.

With the new addition of IAsyncEnumerable and the System.Linq.Async and System.Interactive.Async libraries things have finally changed.

In this lecture you will learn what asynchronous streams mean in C# and how you can leverage them to build complex asynchronous pipelines inside your .NET applications.
