It’s one thing to identify bottlenecks and implement optimizations for a specific website or a few similar websites, and quite another when dealing with many millions of websites, having such a wide variety of functionality, and an almost total freedom of design. Instead, we have to accommodate all of this variability, mostly on-demand.

Common components of DR and HA architectures By definition, there are differences between high availability (HA) and disaster recovery (DR). Backup systems: Both HA and DR architectures have backup systems in place. This may involve taking a server offline, rerouting network traffic, or replacing a failed disk drive.

Thanks to progress in networks and browsers (but not devices), a more generous global budget cap has emerged for sites constructed the "modern" way: ~100KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JS (compressed) is the new rule-of-thumb limit for at least the next year or two. Modern network performance and availability.

Design: Performance is the gap between Figma mockups and the user experience of products for many, but not all , users. The extent to which a product performs well, the higher its likelihood of behaving in accordance to the approved design spec. Reduced network and device capacity correlate with other access challenges.
