What happened and what to do

Published on August 8, 2026, the post discusses the libuv event loop, a fundamental concept in asynchronous programming. It also notes conceptual similarities between this mechanism and event loops in other systems, and explains that understanding libuv helps C and C++ professionals analyze asynchronous code.

A company maintaining C or C++ applications can apply this knowledge to review asynchronous flows, identify blocking points, and establish suitable tests and monitoring. The practical response is to improve software reliability and observability, without assuming that AI needs to be added.

How the consultancy can help

Wendelmaques can diagnose an application's asynchronous flows and observability risks, define a scope for improvements, and implement and operate tests, monitoring, or software adjustments as needed.
