Efficiency Games Hardware Latency 
The Morning Paper
JANUARY 30, 2020
Edge servers are the middle ground – more compute power than a mobile device, but with latency of just a few ms. These use their regression models to estimate processing time (which will depend on the hardware available, current load, etc.). Why would we want to live migrate web workers?

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. Ford, et al., “TCP

They can run applications in Sweden, serve end users across the Nordics with lower latency, and leverage advanced technologies such as containers, serverless computing, and more. Supercell is a mobile game developer, based in Helsinki, Finland, with over 100 million people playing their games every single day.

Consistent improvement is the name of the game, and it can still have positive impacts, particularly as users lean on the system more heavily over time. Real-time network protocols for enabling videoconferencing, desktop sharing, and game streaming applications. Critical for gaming with a mouse. Delayed five years. Gamepad API.

In each quantum of time, hardware and OS vendors press ahead, adding features. As OS and hardware deployed base integrate these components, the set of what most computers can do is expanded. This is often determined by hardware integration and device replacement rates. Same with IDEs and developer tools.

In traditional database architectures, database engines often run a small search engine or data warehouse engines on the same hardware as the database. No matter which mechanism you choose to use, we make the stream data available to you instantly (latency in milliseconds) and how fast you want to apply the changes is up to you.
