In order to understand, reduce and optimize your systems, I recommend you watch my presentation on Top Performance Challenges in Distributed Architectures , where I highlight the most common performance problems: Too many roundtrips between services, e.g. N+1 Query Pattern. Impressive results I have to say!

Load balancing : Traffic is distributed across multiple servers to prevent any one component from becoming overloaded. Load balancers can detect when a component is not responding and put traffic redirection in motion. Please note that these are presented as general best practices.

In short, any data that is written must be consistent with the data present. This level of distribution will seriously affect the efficiency of the operation, which will increase the response time significantly. It will also allow us to redirect read/write traffic to the primary and read-only traffic to all secondaries.

Based on what Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon Web Services, presented at re:Invent 2018, it seems that the majority is moving their workloads to AWS: These stats tell us that there are a lot of Microsoft related workloads in the public cloud that can be optimized! Are they receiving traffic? #3: Dynatrace news.

Load balancing: Load balancers distribute traffic evenly across multiple servers or data centers. In DR, load balancers route traffic to the secondary data center when a failover occurs. If carbon monoxide or other dangerous gasses were present, the gasses would kill the canary, signaling the miners to leave the tunnels immediately.

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.

QUIC is needed because TCP, which has been around since the early days of the Internet, was not really built with maximum efficiency in mind. For example, if the device is a firewall, it might be configured to block all traffic containing (unknown) extensions. For example, TCP requires a “ handshake ” to set up a new connection.
