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

This was a keynote presentation at the “2nd International Workshop on Performance Modeling: Methods and Applications” (PMMA16), June 23, 2016, Frankfurt, Germany (in conjunction with ISC16 ). Here I assumed a particular analytical function for the amount of memory traffic as a function of cache size to scale the bandwidth time.

The next closest active POP location to Bucharest was Istanbul which was still almost 900km away; this distance adds up in terms of latency. As of 2016, Bucharest alone had a population of over 1.83 million people. As for Romania, it covers an area of over 238,000 square kilometers and as of 2017 had a population of almost 20 million.

Although both countries are relatively close to one another, they are separated by a distance of approximately 500km, which adds up in terms of latency.

It simulates a link with a 400ms RTT and 400-600Kbps of throughput (plus latency variability and simulated packet loss). Simulated packet loss and variable latency, however, can make benchmarking extremely difficult and slow. Our baseline, then, should probably trade lower throughput/higher-latency for packet loss.

At the time of the last Confluence run, the gap had stretched to nearly 1000 APIs, doubling since 2016. For heavily latency-sensitive use-cases like WebXR, this is a critical component in delivering a good experience.

In the latest (October 2016) revision of Intel’s Instruction Extensions Programming Reference , Intel has disclosed a fairly dramatic departure from these “traditional” approaches. With 2 FMA units that have 5-cycle latency, the code must implement at least 2*5=10 independent accumulators in order to avoid stalls.

Because HTTP redirection is handled server-side, it is typically faster than client-side redirection, especially if the browser can cache the new location of the requested file.

The L3 cache size is 64MB. The slightly newer Intel Xeon E5-26xx v4 (Broadwell) series which was introduced in Q1 of 2016, increased that to 2400MHz. The L3 cache size is 64MB.

To this end, having a solid caching strategy can make all the difference for your visitors. ?? How is your knowledge of caching and Cache-Control headers? That being said, more and more often in my work I see lots of opportunities being left on the table through unconsidered or even completely overlooked caching practices.

I started writing “ Serverless Architectures ” in May 2016. I was a little restricted in my thinking the first time around and I’ve come to see FaaS as something not quite stateless, since caching state in a Lambda instance that might stick around for 5 hours is a perfectly reasonable idea. I thought a few folks might be interested.

This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. In 2008, AWS opened a point of presence (PoP) in Hong Kong to enable customers to serve content to their end users with low latency. Since then, AWS has added two more PoPs in Hong Kong, the latest in 2016.
