Concurrent Processing in .NET 6 with System.Threading.Channels (Bonus: Interval Trees)

Learn how to simplify concurrent processing and pipelining of data using channels, a built-in feature of .NET 6. With channels, you can parallelize API calls and post-processing as a stream which enhances the applications throughput and responsiveness. This tutorial demonstrates usage of dotnet 6 channels and the ease of implementing concurrent processing with System.Threading.Channels in C#10. A use case is mentioned where a calendar reconciliation application retrieves events from Google, Outlook, and iCloud calendars to find conflicts using IntervalTree data structure, which detects overlaps efficiently. The article highlights the importance of concurrency, which can save operating costs and enhance user interactions.
