Today, I am excited to announce plans for Amazon Web Services (AWS) to bring an infrastructure Region to the Middle East! Based in Bahrain, this will be the first Region for AWS in the Middle East. This Region will consist of three Availability Zones at launch, and it will provide even lower latency to users across the Middle East.

Charlie Vazac introduced server timing in a Performance Calendar post circa 2018. Latency – How much time does it take to deliver a packet from A to B. Amazon Cloudfront You can add server-timing headers via opt-in via the AWS Console as mentioned in this post. However, wider adoption has only just started to take off.

This post was originally published in July 2018 and was updated in July 2023. Now that Database-as-a-service (DBaaS) is in high demand, there are multiple questions regarding AWS services that cannot always be answered easily: When should I use Aurora and when should I use RDS MySQL ? What are the differences between Aurora and RDS?

2) Cloud will decentralise in terms of provision not power i.e. Amazon will "invade" more of those holdouts with AWS Outpost. odrotbohm : I’ve seen microservice based systems more deranged after 2 years than any 1,5 decades old monolith could ever have been. Me : Nothing special. 3) Serverless will rocket. If you plan for it.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Per se, GraphQL is a query language for your API, and a server-side runtime for executing queries by using a type system you define for your data. In exchange, your team gains maintainability and developer efficiency, of course.

Globally in 2018–2019, according to the IDC, 87% of all shipped mobile phones are Android devices. Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. So additionally conducting research on common devices in your target group might be a good idea.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
