Just because everything works perfectly during production testing doesn’t mean that will be the case when your website is flooded with traffic. Bottlenecks can occur, for example, if you have a sudden surge in traffic that your servers are not equipped to handle. What Are the Benefits of Performance Testing?

You will need to know which monitoring metrics for Redis to watch and a tool to monitor these critical server metrics to ensure its health. Understanding Redis Performance Indicators Redis is designed to handle high traffic and low latency with its in-memory data store and efficient data structures. <code> 127.0.0.1:6379>

This results in expedited query execution, reduced resource utilization, and more efficient exploitation of the available hardware resources. Reduced Resource Usage Optimizing resource-intensive queries and configurations can lead to a reduced burden on your server. Indexing is another powerful technique for query optimization.

In general terms, to achieve HA in PostgreSQL, there must be: Redundancy: To ensure data redundancy and provide continuous performance when a primary server fails, multiple copies of the database reside in replica servers. When the primary server fails, a standby server takes over as the new primary.

Essentially, all traffic between China and the rest of the world goes through a few national level and a handful of core level access points in different regions. The censorship and monitoring of internet have evolved from anti-virus-like and firewall software to hardware security patches for all devices that uses internet.

LoadView – Best Practices and Process. It helps assess how a site, web application, or API will respond to various traffic, without adding any additional infrastructure. Executing an internal test can tell you how well your application or site handles an increase in traffic, but it will never reflect real-world conditions.

Since instances of both CentOS and Ubuntu were running in parallel, I could collect flame graphs at the same time (same time-of-day traffic mix) and compare them side by side. This server is spending about a third of its CPU cycles just checking the time! The CentOS flame graph: The Ubuntu flame graph: Darn, they didn't work.

This metric shows how much time it takes for the server to respond with something. This metric is important, but quite vague because it can include anything — starting from server rendering time and ending up with latency problems. This saves clients traffic — sometimes traffic which the client is paying for.

Is it worth exploring tree-shaking, scope hoisting, code-splitting, and all the fancy loading patterns with intersection observer, server push, clients hints, HTTP/2, service workers and — oh my — edge workers? Long FMP usually indicates JavaScript blocking the main thread, but could be related to back-end/server issues as well.

Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). It is physically limited by the speed of light or, practically, how fast signals can travel in wires or in the open air. As such, even low latencies of less than 50 milliseconds can add up to considerable delays.
