The new AWS Africa (Cape Town) Region will have three Availability Zones and provide lower latency to end users across Sub-Saharan Africa. What would have taken two weeks on local servers now only takes a few minutes. It is our first Region in Africa, and we're shooting to have it ready in the first half of 2020.

You need a business stakeholder buy-in, and to get it, you need to establish a case study, or a proof of concept using the Performance API on how speed benefits metrics and Key Performance Indicators ( KPIs ) they care about. It will help you build up a company-tailored case study with real data. How to get there?

Rather than buying racks and racks of servers that need to handle the maximum potential traffic and be idle most of the time, it seems that serverless’ method of paying by compute is proving to be beneficial to the bottom lines of organizations. The third stand-out issue was “no server maintenance.” latency, startup, mocking, etc.)

As a part of that process, we also realized that there were a number of latency sensitive or location specific use cases like Hadoop, HPC, and testing that would be ideal for Spot. However, customers with these use cases need a way to more easily and reliably target Availability Zones. No Server Required - Jekyll & Amazon S3.

Using an image CDN, such as KeyCDN, can significantly reduce the latency of your image delivery. You can use our Brotli Test tool to see whether or not your server supports Brotli. The main reason is because it decreases the latency to the user where they are located by serving your images from a POP physically closest to them.

Yet, for all these technological developments, it’s interesting that many of us are still serving sites in the same way Tim did with the very first website — a web server serving static website files. At the time, Nanoc talked about compiling source files into HTML: It operates on local files, and therefore does not run on the server.
