Disruptor is a library for the Java programming language that provides a concurrent ring buffer data structure of the same name, developed at LMAX Exchange.
[1] It is designed to provide a low-latency, high-throughput work queue in asynchronous event processing architectures.
It ensures that any data is owned by only one thread for write access, therefore reducing write contention compared to other structures.
[2][3] The library is used for asynchronous logging in the popular Java software library Log4j.
