Expanding the Cloud – An AWS Region is coming to Hong Kong

All Things Distributed

This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. In 2008, AWS opened a point of presence (PoP) in Hong Kong to enable customers to serve content to their end users with low latency. Since then, AWS has added two more PoPs in Hong Kong, the latest in 2016.

Percentiles don’t work: Analyzing the distribution of response times for web services

Adrian Cockcroft

There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA. I presented this analysis of response time distributions talk in 2016 — at Microxchg in Berlin ( video ). Mu is the mean of each component, the latency. I’ve been thinking about this for a long time.

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2021

Alex Russell

Back in 2016, I gave a talk outlining the causes and effects of the terrible performance of web apps built using popular tools on the fastest-growing device segment: low-end to mid-range Android phones. In 2016, Jio swept over the subcontinent like a monsoon dropping a torrent of 4G infrastructure and free data rather than rain.

A Management Maturity Model for Performance

Alex Russell

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.

Can You Afford It?: Real-world Web Performance Budgets

Alex Russell

Teams with this support are free to set performance budgets, do “bakeoffs” between competing approaches, and invest in performance infrastructure. It simulates a link with a 400ms RTT and 400-600Kbps of throughput (plus latency variability and simulated packet loss). Performance budgets keep everyone on the same.
