My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory.

Of the many factors that affect page-load speed, media is a significant one. Also, if you are not using a content delivery network (CDN) or multiple CDNs to map users to the closest edge regions for reduced latencies — a practice called suboptimal routing — you might slow down the start of the video. Wrapping Up.

I’d like to say that this one AMP Story was an outlier, but each of the nine demos listed on the AMP Stories website sound just as incomprehensible in VoiceOver. The good news is that it’s easier than ever to ship a website with these base requirements of unparalleled speed and accessibility!

Using CDN for the whole website, you can offload most of the website traffic to your CDN which will handle not only large traffic spikes but also reduce the latency of content delivery. They often get blindsided by vendor’s pitch and end-up making decision based on some fancy demos (see my post from 2014 on Adobe AEM ).
