Asynchronous processing is a common requirement in Salesforce Aura components. Implementing a mechanism to trigger subsequent operations upon the completion of an initial action ensures efficient handling of tasks. For example, upon successfully saving a record, a notification component may be updated to reflect the changed data. This approach enhances the user experience by providing timely feedback and automating chained processes within the application.
Orchestrating a sequence of actions significantly improves the responsiveness and reliability of Aura components. By deferring the execution of dependent operations, the main thread remains unblocked, preventing performance bottlenecks and ensuring a fluid user interface. Historically, developers relied on callbacks and promises to manage asynchronous execution; however, the framework provides built-in mechanisms and best practices to streamline these implementations. This improves code maintainability and reduces the risk of race conditions or unhandled exceptions.
