MS Open Tech Open Sources Rx (Reactive Extensions) – a Cure for Asynchronous Data Streams in Cloud Programming – Interoperability @ Microsoft

If you are a developer that writes asynchronous code for composite applications in the cloud, you know what we are talking about, for everybody else Rx Extensions is a set of libraries that makes asynchronous programming a lot easier. As Dave Sexton describes it, “If asynchronous spaghetti code were a disease, Rx is the cure.â€

Reactive Extensions (Rx) is a programming model that allows developers to glue together asynchronous data streams. This is particularly useful in cloud programming because helps create a common interface for writing applications that come from diverse data sources, e.g., stock quotes, Tweets, computer events, Web service requests.
