This approach often leads to heavyweight high-latency analytical processes and poor applicability to realtime use cases. There is a system that monitors traffic and counts unique visitors for different criteria (visited site, geography, etc.) A group of several such sketches can be used to process range query.

In this comparison of Redis vs Memcached, we strip away the complexity, focusing on each in-memory data store’s performance, scalability, and unique features. Performance Comparison: Redis vs Memcached Although Redis and Memcached are high-performance in-memory data stores, their performance characteristics are distinct.

The chief effect of the architectural difference is to shift the distribution of latency within the loop. Herein lies the source of our collective anxiety about front-end architectures: traversing networks is always fraught, but the costs to deliver client-side logic to cushion users from variable network latency remain stubbornly high.

A quick way to fix this is simply by temporarily changing the TTL (time to live) setting for the DNS record, and route your traffic to the second DNS server until the outage is fixed. Using a fast DNS hosting provider ensures there is less latency between the DNS lookup and TTFB. Speed Speed also plays a role with DNS.

DLVs are particularly advantageous for databases with large allocated storage, high I/O per second (IOPS) requirements, or latency-sensitive workloads. For write-only traffic, the QPS counters match the performance of standard RDS instances for lower thread counts, though, for higher counters, there is a drastic improvement.

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.

Finally, not inlining resources has an added latency cost because the file needs to be requested. Note that there is an Apache Traffic Server implementation, though.).

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).
