This is such a fundamental difference, that many architectural choices from native platforms don’t easily apply to the web — if at all. iOS empowers developers to easily parallelize code using Grand Central Dispatch , Android does this via their new, unified task scheduler WorkManager and game engines like Unity have job systems.

To improve availability, we designed systems where components could fail separately and avoid single points of failure. These design principles led us to client-side load-balancing, and the 2012 Christmas Eve outage solidified this decision even further. This means the clusters that a service communicates with will change over time.
