This video is the third part of the Notification System Low-Level Design (LLD) series, focusing on adding Asynchronous Support to improve throughput and prevent blocking the main request thread.

Video Description
The tutorial addresses a major bottleneck in synchronous systems: the long wait time while calling third-party vendor APIs. By moving the actual "sending" work to background threads, the system can respond to clients immediately after the notification is stored in the database.

In-Memory Messaging: Introduction of a BlockingQueue as an internal message buffer.

Producer-Consumer Pattern: The NotificationService acts as a producer (pushing to the queue), and dedicated NotificationWorker threads act as consumers (polling and sending).

Concurrency Management: Using Java's ExecutorService and a NotificationWorkerManager to handle a pool of worker threads efficiently, rather than manual thread creation.

Thread Safety: Explaining why LinkedBlockingQueue is chosen for its thread-safe properties and blocking capabilities.
