epics (via redux-observable) are an abstraction in the same space as redux-thunk or redux-saga or redux-loop, it's meant to address the functionality missing in redux for async actions. epics allow us to observe the stream of actions, so we can do async operations like fetching or saving data, by listening for when the initial action is dispatched, then dispatching a series of sync (update) actions based on the progress of the async operation.
