Today, I am very excited to announce our plans to open a new AWS Region in Hong Kong! The new region will give Hong Kong-based businesses, government organizations, non-profits, and global companies with customers in Hong Kong, the ability to leverage AWS technologies from data centers in Hong Kong.

Datadog created a dedicated data ingestion architecture offering exactly-once semantics for their third-generation event store, Husky. The event-driven architecture (EDA) can accommodate bursts in traffic in the multi-tenant platform with reasonable ingestion latency and acceptable operational costs. By Rafal Gancarz

It is available for the major OS and cloud platforms (for example, Windows, Linux, Solaris, AWS, Azure, and more) and only requires the deployment of a single service to monitor its environment. Most importantly, this information does not only cover the server side, but, thanks to RUM, also the client side and events in the browser.

It increases our visibility and enables us to draw a steady stream of organic (or “free”) traffic to our site. While paid marketing strategies like Google Ads play a part in our approach as well, enhancing our organic traffic remains a major priority. The higher our organic traffic, the more profitable we become as a company.

I spent a lot of time talking to AWS developers, many working in the gaming and mobile space, and most of them have been finding Node.js With its asynchronous, event-driven programming model, Node.js allows these developers to handle a large number of concurrent connections with low latencies. Who is using Elastic Beanstalk?

In this blog post, we will give an overview of the Rapid Event Notification System at Netflix and share some of the learnings we gained along the way.

Most existing adtech infrastructure simply can not achieve the required latency. VoltDB provides the necessary technology to achieve the latency required by header bidding. And while it’s easy to say “spin up more AWS servers”, you’re only adding to your cloud provider bill. Another adtech infrastructure problem is capacity.

It’s built on top of Netty , using event loops for non-blocking execution of requests, one loop per core. To reduce contention among event loops, we created connection pools for each, keeping them completely independent. That’s a significant amount and certainly more than is necessary relative to the traffic on most clusters.

Collecting some critical metrics at one second intervals, with a total observability latency of ten seconds or less matches the human attention span much better. This is why most AWS regions have three availability zones. Try to measure your mean time to respond (MTTR) for incidents.

In that scenario, the system would need to deal with the data propagation latency directly, for example, by use of timeouts or client-originated update tracking mechanisms.
