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.

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.

How To Avoid Landing Page Redirects (10 min read)

Rigor

This is similar to the type of redirect used if you’ve registered multiple domains and you want to direct all of your traffic to your primary URL. In all of these instances, you should identify which URL garners the most traffic and then configure an HTTP 301 -type redirect for all of the lesser-used URLs to the most-trafficked.

Revisiting “Serverless Architectures”

The Symphonia

I started writing “ Serverless Architectures ” in May 2016. I was a little restricted in my thinking the first time around and I’ve come to see FaaS as something not quite stateless, since caching state in a Lambda instance that might stick around for 5 hours is a perfectly reasonable idea. I thought a few folks might be interested.

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. A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage.

KeyCDN Launches New POPs in 2021

KeyCDN

The image below shows a significant drop in latency once we've launched the new point of presence in Israel. In fact, latency has been reduced by almost 50%! With a total of 5 POPs in Oceania, this continent benefits from lower latency with every POP added. So far, traffic from Nigeria has been routed to Europe.

The Surprising Effectiveness of Non-Overlapping, Sensitivity-Based Performance Models

John McCalpin

This was a keynote presentation at the “2nd International Workshop on Performance Modeling: Methods and Applications” (PMMA16), June 23, 2016, Frankfurt, Germany (in conjunction with ISC16 ). Here I assumed a particular analytical function for the amount of memory traffic as a function of cache size to scale the bandwidth time.
