For some background, Kubernetes was created by Google and is currently maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). Applications can be horizontally scaled with Kubernetes by adding or deleting containers based on resource allocation and incoming traffic demands.

Meanwhile, on Android, the #2 and #3 sources of web traffic do not respect browser choice. Google's Search App and Facebook's various apps for Android undermine these choices in slightly different ways. [3] Developers also suffer higher costs and reduced opportunities to escape Google, Facebook, and Apple's walled gardens.

Because we are dealing with network protocols here, we will mainly look at network aspects, of which two are most important: latency and bandwidth. Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).

Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. Regardless, the overall story for hardware progress remains grim, particularly when we recall how long device replacement cycles are: Tap for a larger version. Sadly, data on latency is harder to get, even from Google's perch, so progress there is somewhat more difficult to judge.

Our metrics at Google show a conflicted picture (which I’m working to get to clarity on). 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. 75% of of connections occur on either 2G or 3G.
