Apr 28, 2023 · Learn how to use dataflow components in the Task Parallel Library (TPL) to improve the robustness of concurrency-enabled applications.

TPL Dataflow (TDF) is a new .NET library for building concurrent applications. It promotes actor/agent-oriented designs through primitives for in-process message passing, dataflow, and pipelining.

Mar 6, 2024 · TPL Dataflow (Task Parallel Library Dataflow) is a .NET Framework library designed for building robust and scalable concurrent data processing pipelines. It offers a declarative model in which...

Jun 19, 2015 · I am looking for a TPL data flow block solution which can hold more than a single item, which can link to multiple target blocks, but which has the ability to forward an item to only a specific target block that passes a filter/predicate.

Sep 15, 2021 · This document explains how to use the JoinBlock<T1,T2> class to perform an operation when data is available from multiple sources. It also demonstrates how to use non-greedy mode to enable multiple join blocks to share a data source more efficiently.

Sep 2, 2014 · Instead you should design the blocks to support any type of EventBase, through the use of polymorphism. You can send a predicate to the LinkTo method to distinguish between the items. You would however need to downcast from EventBase inside each block to use logic specific to that type: eventBase => var meeting = eventBase as Meeting; //... });

There are several options on how to do this: Use TransformManyBlock as Jon suggested and return a collection containing 1 or 0 items. Use TransformBlock with some special value representing “no value” (e.g. null) and then use a LinkTo() with filter to remove those.

A TPL Dataflow-compatible ISourceBlock supporting three priorities, Low, Medium, and High, implemented as the composition of three BufferBlocks. Synchronous and Asynchronous operations supported.

Feb 28, 2025 · In this course, Advanced Data and Stream Processing with Microsoft TPL Dataflow, you will learn how to take advantage of both the data flow programming model and the actor model implemented in Microsoft TPL Dataflow to write systems capable of quickly processing hundreds of gigabytes of data.

Feb 11, 2025 · TPL Dataflow brings structure and reliability to complex data processing scenarios. While it requires some initial learning, its ability to handle concurrency, back pressure, and flow control automatically makes it invaluable for building robust processing pipelines.
