This is often surprising to engineers coming from traditional software or data infrastructure backgrounds who may not be used to thinking about validation plans until after the code is written. How do we do so?

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.

Synthetic monitoring vendors provide a remote (often global) infrastructure that visits a website periodically and records the performance data for each run. As a result, users can identify latency and downtime promptly, and they can then scientifically isolate and diagnose the root cause of any performance issues that may arise.
