Kotlin coroutines, are they better than threads when developing server side ? are they a better than Java thread pool ?

Threads and coroutines are different things, it’s not really a A vs B situation

Thank you!

corotines are way more lightweight https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/coroutines/basics.html#coroutines-are-light-weight

@adi It really depends what u want to achieve, if you look at just thread pools , they are by themselves unusable in a larger scope, the key lies in how the scheduling is done when u hit a blocking part of code, this is where coroutines shine upto a particular level. Threads are only a problem when u start using blocking code like jdbc calls. This is where coroutines can help u limit the no of threads
