A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. Since instances of both CentOS and Ubuntu were running in parallel, I could collect flame graphs at the same time (same time-of-day traffic mix) and compare them side by side.

In 2010, however, nearly none of it existed: the CNCF wasn’t formed until 2015! In order for a service to talk to another, it needs to know two things: the name of the destination service, and whether or not the traffic should be secure. Our internal IPC traffic is now a mix of plain REST, GraphQL , and gRPC.

Nonetheless, we found a number of limitations that could not satisfy our requirements e.g. stalling the processing of log events until a dump is complete, missing ability to trigger dumps on demand, or implementations that block write traffic by using table locks. Blocking write traffic by locking tables. Writing events to any output.

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”. Why Do We Need HTTP/3? TLS, TCP, and QUIC handshake durations ( Large preview ).
