Next generation architectures will use CXL3.0 Next generation architectures will use CXL3.0

When designing an architecture, many components need to be considered before deciding on the best solution. Let us take a look also the latency: Here the situation starts to be a little bit more complicated. MySQL Router is the one that has the higher latency no matter what. MySQL Router was never in the game.

In this architecture, service to service communication no longer goes through the single point of failure of a load balancer. The above architecture has served us well over the last decade, though changing business needs and evolving industry standards have added more complexity to our IPC ecosystem in a number of ways.

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.

For example, let's say you send more HTML and less JavaScript, or your serving game is on lock and all critical assets load over a single H/2 link. If your product behavior or your own team's data or market research suggests different tradeoffs, then it's only right to set your own per-product baseline. How should your estimates change?

Similarly, relationships are essential in many other use cases such as financial modeling, risk analysis, genome research, search, gaming, and others. When using relational databases, traversing relationships requires expensive table JOIN operations, causing significantly increased latency as table size and query complexity grow.

Sadly, data on latency is harder to get, even from Google's perch, so progress there is somewhat more difficult to judge. One subtle effect of browser attempts to avoid showing users blank white screens is that optimisations meant to hide latency from users may cause misattribution by users in cross-site flows.
