It was – like the hypothetical movie I describe above – more than a little bit odd, as you could leave a session discussing ever more abstract layers of virtualization and walk into one where they emphasized the critical importance of pinning a network interface to a specific VM for optimal performance.

Lots can go wrong: a network request fails, a third-party library breaks, a JavaScript feature is unsupported (assuming JavaScript is even available), a CDN goes down, a user behaves unexpectedly (they double-click a submit button), the list goes on. The more enriched sentence (right) is an enhancement for when the network request succeeds.

When we released Always On Availability Groups in SQL Server 2012 as a new and powerful way to achieve high availability, hardware environments included NUMA machines with low-end multi-core processors and SATA and SAN drives for storage (some SSDs). As we moved towards SQL Server 2014, the pace of hardware accelerated.

Software services still require physical devices and hardware for them to function. An organization’s response to an incident, whether we are talking about downtime, security breaches or cyber-attacks, or even prolonged latency and repeated errors, is critical to the continued success of the business and trust from the customer or end user.

As we will see, QUIC and HTTP/3 indeed have great web performance potential, but mainly for users on slow networks. If your average visitor is on a fast cabled or cellular network, they probably won’t benefit from the new protocols all that much. Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).
