Building Netflix’s Distributed Tracing Infrastructure

The Netflix TechBlog

If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls. Our distributed tracing infrastructure is grouped into three sections: tracer library instrumentation, stream processing, and storage.

Edgar: Solving Mysteries Faster with Observability

The Netflix TechBlog

Edgar helps Netflix teams troubleshoot distributed systems efficiently with the help of a summarized presentation of request tracing, logs, analysis, and metadata. Distributed tracing is the process of generating, transporting, storing, and retrieving traces in a distributed system. What is Edgar?

Software Testing Trends 2021 – What can we expect?

Testsigma

The usage by advanced techniques such as RPA, Artificial Intelligence, machine learning and process mining is a hyper-automated application that improves employees and automates operations in a way which is considerably more efficient than conventional automation. Gartner’s 2020 projections first included the trend of hyperautomation.

Can You Afford It?: Real-world Web Performance Budgets

Alex Russell

Contended, over-subscribed cells can make “fast” networks brutally slow, transport variance can make TCP much less efficient , and the bursty nature of web traffic works against us. It simulates a link with a 400ms RTT and 400-600Kbps of throughput (plus latency variability and simulated packet loss).

Front-End Performance Checklist 2019 [PDF, Apple Pages, MS Word]

Smashing Magazine

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. In exchange, your team gains maintainability and developer efficiency, of course. To optimize storage interally, you could use Dropbox’s new Lepton format for losslessly compressing JPEGs by an average of 22%.

Front-End Performance Checklist 2021

Smashing Magazine

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
