Trade-offs under pressure: heuristics and observations of teams resolving internet service outages , Allspaw, Masters thesis, Lund University 2015. This is part 2 of our look at Allspaw’s 2015 master thesis (here’s part 1 ). 1:32pm the API errors were narrowed down to requests for data on a specific single shop.

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory. Ford, et al., “TCP

You’ve probably heard things like: “HTTP/3 is much faster than HTTP/2 when there is packet loss”, or “HTTP/3 connections have less latency and take less time to set up”, and probably “HTTP/3 can send data more quickly and can send more resources in parallel”. Why Do We Need HTTP/3? Did You Know?

There are different considerations when deciding where to allocate resources with latency and cost being the two obvious ones, but compliance sometimes plays an important role as well. The move to the cloud is projected by 2015 see a reduction of 30% in IT infrastructure costs, which amounts to $7.2 Recent Entries. Amazon DynamoDB â??

JavaScript-Heavy # Since at least 2015, building JavaScript-first websites has been a predictably terrible idea, yet most of the sites I trace on a daily basis remain mired in script. [1] Emerging markets with high mobile internet use and dense populations can feature poor fixed-line broadband penetration compared with Western markets.

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. Colleagues/Internet I love using Linux performance tools. But I also love solving issues quickly, and sometimes that means just asking colleagues or searching the Internet.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. In real-life world, most products aren’t even close: an average bundle size today is around 400KB , which is up 35% compared to late 2015. On a middle-class mobile device, that accounts for 30-35 seconds for Time-To-Interactive.
