These can include business metrics, such as conversion rates, uptime, and availability; service metrics, such as application performance; or technical metrics, such as dependencies to third-party services, underlying CPU, and the cost of running a service. Generally, SLOs are important because they: Improve software quality.

By Benson Ma , Alok Ahuja Introduction At Netflix, hundreds of different device types, from streaming sticks to smart TVs, are tested every day through automation to ensure that new software releases continue to deliver the quality of the Netflix experience that our customers enjoy. In this blog post, we will focus on the latter feature set.

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 engineering teams tuned their services for performance after factoring in increased resource utilization due to tracing.

Before you begin tuning your website or application, you must first figure out which metrics matter most to your users and establish some achievable benchmarks. In the context of web development, performance testing entails using software tools to simulate how an application runs under specific circumstances.

By collecting and analyzing key performance metrics of the service over time, we can assess the impact of the new changes and determine if they meet the availability, latency, and performance requirements. They enable us to further fine-tune and configure the system, ensuring the new changes are integrated smoothly and seamlessly.

Making applications observable—relying on metrics, logs, and traces to understand what software is doing and how it’s performing—has become increasingly important as workloads are shifting to multicloud environments. We also introduced our demo app and explained how to define the metrics and traces it uses.

When an application is triggered, it can cause latency as the application starts. Performing updates, installing software, and resolving hardware issues requires up to 17 hours of developer time every week. This creates latency when they need to restart.

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).

Finally, not inlining resources has an added latency cost because the file needs to be requested. As such, a micro-optimization is, again, how you probably need to fine-tune things on a low level to really benefit from it. As such, many firewall vendors currently recommend blocking QUIC until they can update their software.
