Handling reactive errors

As we have done before, any microservice needs to be built for failure, so when we create reactive microservices, we can handle any error gracefully.

In this section, we learn how to use them to make our reactive microservice as good at handling errors as our non-reactive microservices.

When we create handlers, we may encounter errors, and those errors can be handled with one special method in any reactive publisher onErrorResume. Let's modify our create method in the CustomerHandler class to understand how it works:
