The third wing of the architecture piece is the “domain specific system-on-chip.” That means multiple data indirections mean multiple cache misses. tef : You can use a message broker to glue systems together, but never use one to cut systems apart. They are very expensive. This is where your performance goes.

In recent years, this idea got a lot of traction and a whole bunch of solutions like Twitter’s Storm, Yahoo’s S4, Cloudera’s Impala, Apache Spark, and Apache Tez appeared and joined the army of Big Data and NoSQL systems. The system should deliver performance of tens of thousands messages per second even on clusters of minimal size.

Chrome DevTools includes a separate “Performance” tab where the testing environment’s CPU and network connection can be artificially throttled to mirror a specific testing condition, such as slow internet speeds.
