Many games, like Fortnite or World of Warcraft, have worldwide fanbases that expect the ability to play at any time. In massively multiplayer online games (MMOs), where players can trade virtual goods, downtime can even have real-world financial implications for players.

Each of these categories opens up challenging problems in AI/visual algorithms, high-density computing, bandwidth/latency, distributed systems. Quality vs Bandwidth.

A common design pattern is to capture transactional and operational data (such as logs) that require high throughput and performance in DynamoDB, and provide periodic updates to search clusters and data warehouses. DynamoDB Streams simplifies and improves this design pattern with a distributed systems approach. Summing It All Up.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency. Photo by von Vix.

The benefits to apps that adopt WebView-based IABs are numerous: WebViews are system components designed for use within other apps. Standard tools, analytics packages, and feature availability dashboards do not make mention of IABs, and the largest WebView IAB promulgators (Facebook, Pinterest, Snap, etc.) How can that be?

Chip design choices and silicon economics are the defining feature of the still-growing Performance Inequality Gap. Sadly, data on latency is harder to get, even from Google's perch, so progress there is somewhat more difficult to judge. Don't pay a lot for an Android-shaped muffler.

Performance isn’t just a technical concern: it affects everything from accessibility to usability to search engine optimization, and when baking it into the workflow, design decisions have to be informed by their performance implications. Looking back now, things seem to have changed quite significantly.
