A three-tier system is a software application architecture that consists of a presentation layer, application layer, and data, or core, layer. Software and hardware components are autonomous and execute tasks concurrently. This also includes latency, or the time it takes for data or a request to get through a network.

At first glance, the market for mobile browsers looks roughly functional. Tech pundits and policymakers form expectations of browsers on the desktop and think about mobile browser competition the same way. The mobile ecosystem appears to retain these properties, but the resemblance is only skin deep. The Baseline Scenario #.

The specifications are impressive: 5G will provide a peak data rate of up to 20 Gbps (with 100 Mbps of “ user experienced data rate ”) to mobile devices: cell phones, smart cars, and a lot of devices that haven’t been invented yet. Can 5G replace wired broadband, allowing one wireless service for home and mobile connectivity?

In the context of web development, performance testing entails using software tools to simulate how an application runs under specific circumstances. Just because everything works perfectly during production testing doesn’t mean that will be the case when your website is flooded with traffic. What is Performance Testing?

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.

In addition, traditional CMS solutions lack integration with modern software stack, cloud services, and software delivery pipelines. Using CDN for the whole website, you can offload most of the website traffic to your CDN which will handle not only large traffic spikes but also reduce the latency of content delivery.

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).
