Netflix’s Distributed Counter Abstraction

The Netflix TechBlog

By: Rajiv Shringi , Oleksii Tkachuk , Kartik Sathyanarayanan Introduction In our previous blog post, we introduced Netflix’s TimeSeries Abstraction , a distributed service designed to store and query large volumes of temporal event data with low millisecond latencies. Today, we’re excited to present the Distributed Counter Abstraction.

The Three Cs: Concatenate, Compress, Cache

CSS Wizardry

What is the availability, configurability, and efficacy of each? ?️ Caching them at the other end: How long should we cache files on a user’s device? Plotted on the same horizontal axis of 1.6s, the waterfalls speak for themselves: 201ms of cumulative latency; 109ms of cumulative download. Cache This is the easy one.

Optimising for High Latency Environments

CSS Wizardry

This gives fascinating insights into the network topography of our visitors, and how much we might be impacted by high latency regions. Round-trip-time (RTT) is basically a measure of latency—how long did it take to get from one endpoint to another and back again? What is RTT? That’s exactly what this article is about.

Consistent caching mechanism in Titus Gateway

The Netflix TechBlog

We introduce a caching mechanism in the API gateway layer, allowing us to offload processing from singleton leader elected controllers without giving up strict data consistency and guarantees clients observe. We started seeing increased response latencies and leader servers running at dangerously high utilization.

The Power of Caching: Boosting API Performance and Scalability

DZone

Caching is the process of storing frequently accessed data or resources in a temporary storage location, such as memory or disk, to improve retrieval speed and reduce the need for repetitive processing. Bandwidth optimization: Caching reduces the amount of data transferred over the network, minimizing bandwidth usage and improving efficiency.

Single-core memory bandwidth: Latency, Bandwidth, and Concurrency

John McCalpin

Latency” is the duration from the execution of a load instruction (to an address that misses in all the caches), and the completion of that load instruction when the data is returned from memory. . The example below is for a 2005-era processor with 60 ns memory latency and 6.4

Foundation Model for Personalized Recommendation

The Netflix TechBlog

Yet, many are confined to a brief temporal window due to constraints in serving latency or training costs. In recommendation systems, context windows during inference are often limited to hundreds of eventsnot due to model capability but because these services typically require millisecond-level latency.
