The Power of Caching: Boosting API Performance and Scalability

DZone

Caching is the process of storing frequently accessed data or resources in a temporary storage location, such as memory or disk, to improve retrieval speed and reduce the need for repetitive processing. Bandwidth optimization: Caching reduces the amount of data transferred over the network, minimizing bandwidth usage and improving efficiency.

Migrating Critical Traffic At Scale with No Downtime?—?Part 1

The Netflix TechBlog

The first phase involves validating functional correctness, scalability, and performance concerns and ensuring the new systems’ resilience before the migration. It provides a good read on the availability and latency ranges under different production conditions. We will examine these alternatives in the upcoming sections.

Benchmark (YCSB) numbers for Redis, MongoDB, Couchbase2, Yugabyte and BangDB

High Scalability

Redis Server: 5.07, x86/64. MongoDB server: 4.4.2, BangDB server: 2.0.0, We note that for MongoDB update latency is really very low (low is better) compared to other dbs, however the read latency is on the higher side. Application example: user profile cache, where profiles are constructed elsewhere (e.g.,

Designing Instagram

High Scalability

When the server receives a request for an action (post, like etc.) When a user requests for feed then there will be two parallel threads involved in fetching the user feeds to optimize for latency. We will use a cache having an LRU based eviction policy for caching user feeds of active users. High Level Design.

Self-Host Your Static Assets

CSS Wizardry

Users might already have the file cached. If website-a.com links to [link] , and a user goes from there to website-b.com who also links to [link] , then the user will already have that file in their cache. Critical assets are far too valuable to leave on someone else’s servers. Risk: Slowdowns and Outages. to just 3.6s.

Optimizing CDN Architecture: Enhancing Performance and User Experience

IO River

A content delivery network (CDN) is a distributed network of servers strategically located across multiple geographical locations to deliver web content to end users more efficiently. When an edge server goes down, end users in the affected region may experience an increase in latency for that specific location.
