The fundamental principles at play include evenly distributing the workload among servers for better application performance and redirecting client requests to nearby servers to reduce latency. This includes zero-day vulnerabilities and software weaknesses that are not yet known and can be exploited without warning.

Database uptime and availability Monitoring database uptime and availability is crucial as it directly impacts the availability of critical data and the performance of applications or websites that rely on the MySQL database. That said, it should also be monitored for usage, which will exhibit the traffic pressuring them.

It increases our visibility and enables us to draw a steady stream of organic (or “free”) traffic to our site. While paid marketing strategies like Google Ads play a part in our approach as well, enhancing our organic traffic remains a major priority. The higher our organic traffic, the more profitable we become as a company.

one of the world's largest online retailers, Amazon relies heavily on its website and digital infrastructure to facilitate sales and generate revenue. The stakes are even higher during high-traffic periods such as Black Friday or Cyber Monday. In 2013, Amazon experienced a brief outage that lasted approximately 30 minutes.

It also allows users to access a website for which native application is not available. There are so many different devices readily available in the market today to view a website. Keeping all these differences, it becomes very important that a website is tested thoroughly before it is launched on different platforms.

This reduction in latency ensures that applications and websites provide a more rapid and responsive user experience. To maximize indexing benefits, be sure to follow best practices. This does not apply to read (SELECT) traffic. To tune these values, it is best to know how many iops your system can perform.

Because we are dealing with network protocols here, we will mainly look at network aspects, of which two are most important: latency and bandwidth. Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).

You would, however, be hard-pressed even today to find a good article that details the nuanced best practices. This is because, as I stated in the introduction to part 1 , much of the early HTTP/2 content was overly optimistic about how well it would work in practice, and some of it, quite frankly, had major mistakes and bad advice.

You’ve probably heard things like: “HTTP/3 is much faster than HTTP/2 when there is packet loss”, or “HTTP/3 connections have less latency and take less time to set up”, and probably “HTTP/3 can send data more quickly and can send more resources in parallel”. Websites would magically become 50% faster with the flip of a switch!
