What Adrian Did Next — Part 4 — how I helped Netflix launch on iPad and iPhone — 2007 to 2010

Adrian Cockcroft

We had some fun getting hardware figured out, and I used a 3D printer to make some cases, but the whole project was interrupted by the delivery of the iPhone by Apple in late 2007. A year or so later, in 2011, Netflix also launched their (free) official iPhone app, and my sales plummeted! I eventually removed my app from the app store.

Six things that slow down your site's UX (and why you have no control over them)

Speed Curve

Photo by Freepik Part of the answer is this: You have a lot of control over the design and code for the pages on your site, plus a decent amount of control over the first and middle mile of the network your pages travel over. For a myriad of reasons, older hardware can't always accommodate faster speeds. to DOCSIS 3.0. After DOCSIS 4.0

Under the Hood of Amazon EC2 Container Service

All Things Distributed

The pool of resources, at this time, is the CPU, memory, and networking resources of Amazon EC2 instances as partitioned by containers. networks ports, memory, CPU, etc). To be robust and scalable, this key/value store needs to be distributed for durability and availability, to protect against network partitions or hardware failures.

AWS Graviton2); for memory with the arrival of DDR5 and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) on-processor; for storage including new uses for 3D Xpoint as a 3D NAND accelerator; for networking with the rise of QUIC and eXpress Data Path (XDP); and so on. I also wrote about these topics in detail for my recent [Systems Performance 2nd Edition] book.

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2021

Alex Russell

Thanks to progress in networks and browsers (but not devices), a more generous global budget cap has emerged for sites constructed the "modern" way: ~100KiB of HTML/CSS/fonts and ~300-350KiB of JS (compressed) is the new rule-of-thumb limit for at least the next year or two. Modern network performance and availability.

Sprint's Marathon

The Agile Manager

First, most mobile subscribers aren't bound to a network. Third, hardware competition is increasingly fierce. While the name of the game is scale, these dynamics suggest it's not a mature market share game for the networks yet, as much as they're caught in the middle. Which brings up Sprint in 2011.
