High Scalability

A typical example of modern "microservices-inspired" Java application would function along these lines: Netflix : We observed during experimentation that RAM random read latencies were rarely higher than 1 microsecond whereas typical SSD random read speeds are between 100–500 microseconds.

The stakes are even higher during high-traffic periods such as Black Friday or Cyber Monday. The impact of outages can be reduced by dispersing traffic across numerous CDNs, resulting in a more smooth user experience.Adopting an Active-Active policy is a critical component of a successful Multi-CDN approach.

The new AWS EU (Stockholm) Region will have three Availability Zones and will be ready for customers to use in 2018. This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. Over the past decade, we have seen tremendous growth at AWS.

The truth is that the two tools were fairly distinct until PSI was updated in 2018 to use Lighthouse reporting. INP is a measure of the latency for all interactions on a given page, where the highest latency — or close to it — informs the final score. It’s right there in the name!

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.

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.

India became a 4G-centric market sometime in 2018. Sadly, data on latency is harder to get, even from Google's perch, so progress there is somewhat more difficult to judge. CrUX data collection and first-party RUM analytics of these metrics require live traffic, meaning results can be predicted but only verified once deployed.

Finally, not inlining resources has an added latency cost because the file needs to be requested. Note that there is an Apache Traffic Server implementation, though.). Traffic for one connection must, of course, always be routed to the same back-end server (the others wouldn’t know what to do with it!).

Contended, over-subscribed cells can make “fast” networks brutally slow, transport variance can make TCP much less efficient , and the bursty nature of web traffic works against us. It simulates a link with a 400ms RTT and 400-600Kbps of throughput (plus latency variability and simulated packet loss).

CrUX generates an overview of performance distributions over time, with traffic collected from Google Chrome users. But account for the different types and usage behaviors of your customers (which Tobias Baldauf called cadence and cohorts ), along with bot traffic and seasonality effects. You can create your own on Chrome UX Dashboard.

For Mac OS, we can use Network Link Conditioner , for Windows Windows Traffic Shaper , for Linux netem , and for FreeBSD dummynet. So additionally conducting research on common devices in your target group might be a good idea.
