Now that Google uses page speed as a ranking factor, many organizations have become laser-focused on performance. Last year, Google made two significant changes to their search indexing and ranking algorithms : In March, indexing became based on the mobile version of a page , rather than desktop. What is Google Lighthouse?

The stateless + RInk (S+RInK) architecture attempts to provide the best of both worlds: to simultaneously offer both the implementation and operational simplicity of stateless application servers and the performance benefits of servers caching state in RAM. This eliminates marshalling costs to reduce CPU usage, and eliminates network latency.

Remote calls are never free; they impose extra latency, increase probability of an error, and consume network bandwidth. This can become an issue for some applications, for example, on mobile devices with limited network bandwidth. Additionally, requesting a large number of fields can make the response payload massive.
