Quality gates are benchmarks in the software delivery lifecycle that define specific, measurable, and achievable success criteria a service must meet before moving to the next phase of the software delivery pipeline. For example, improving latency by as little as 0.1 latency is the number one reason consumers abandon mobile sites.

RUM gathers information on a variety of performance metrics. Data collected on page load events, for example, can include navigation start (when performance begins to be measured), request start (right before the user makes a request from the server), and speed index metrics (measure page load speed). Real user monitoring limitations.

A performance budget is a threshold that you apply to the metrics you care about the most. A good performance budget chart, such as the one above, should show you: The metric you're tracking The threshold you've created for that metric When you exceed that threshold How long you stayed out of bounds When you returned to below the threshold 3.

If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls. Using simple lookup indices in Cassandra gives us the ability to maintain acceptable read latencies while doing heavy writes.

Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.
