When deciding what to pick, there are many things to consider, like where the proxy needs to be, if it “just” needs to redirect the connections, or if more features need to be in, like caching and filtering, or if it needs to be integrated with some MySQL embedded automation. MySQL Router was never in the game.

Redis's microsecond latency has made it a de facto choice for caching. Four years ago, as part of our AWS fast data journey, we introduced Amazon ElastiCache for Redis , a fully managed, in-memory data store that operates at microsecond latency. Whether it is gaming, adtech, travel, or retail—speed wins, it's simple.

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.

In recent years GPU development that was originally funded by the gaming market (and ended up being used as a supercomputer accelerator) has been dominated by use in the AI/ML accelerator market. Many HPC workloads synchronize work on a barrier, and work much better if there’s a consistently narrow latency distribution without a long tail.

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”. Many sources claim that HTTP/3 is built on top of UDP because of performance.

Because we are dealing with network protocols here, we will mainly look at network aspects, of which two are most important: latency and bandwidth. Latency can be roughly defined as the time it takes to send a packet from point A (say, the client) to point B (the server). Two-way latency is often called round-trip time (RTT).
