In a MySQL hosting replication setup, the parameter Seconds_Behind_Master (SBM), as displayed by the SHOW SLAVE STATUS command, is commonly used as an indication of the current replication lag of the slave. In this blog post, we examine how to understand and interpret this value in various situations. Possible Values of Seconds Behind Master. The value of SBM, as explained in the MySQL documentation , depends on the state of the MySQL slave in general, and the states of MySQL slave SQL_THREAD

When it comes to network performance, there are two main limiting factors that will slow you down: bandwidth and latency. Bandwidth is defined as…. …the maximum rate of data transfer across a given path. Generally speaking, increased bandwidth is only particularly useful when you’re transferring or downloading large files. If you’re streaming video, the difference between a 2Mb 1 connection and a 20Mb connection will surely be appreciated.

Poor performance leads to exclusion. When we create heavy sites we limit what users can access our content. Those with more powerful devices and better network will get sites loaded faster. Those with older devices and slower network will need to wait more. Why performance is important Study after study shows how slowing sites down results in less engagement, less time on the site and a general decrease in key business metrics.

I perceive that fear is becoming pervasive and increasingly intense around the world. When I share this perception with others, I often get the response: “What fear? I don’t know many people who are afraid.”. That’s part of the problem. The fear is often not visible unless we know where and how to look for it. Why is that the case? Emotions are suspect As I’ve written elsewhere , our institutions are organized on a scalable efficiency model that views emotions as deeply suspect.

Yesterday there was a bit of a heated discussion around a WebKit issue that suggested putting a limit on the amount of JavaScript a website can load. In the issue, Craig Hockenberry makes the case that enforcing a limit on the amount of JavaScript would provide a sort of “meet me in the middle” solution for users currently using content blockers.

Over the past few years, ecommerce sites have made a concerted effort to improve their shopping experience. Most ecommerce sites employ third party gizmos to add features like chat, recommendations, reviews, personalization and localization. The problem is, these third party scripts extract a cost: inconsistent website performance.

The Agile Manager

JANUARY 31, 2019

From the COO's perspective, the corporate IT department has hit rock bottom and they keep digging. Very little gets deployed, and the software that does make it live is embarrassingly bad. IT is not exactly a clean canvas. ERP, CRM, document management and other key systems started life as COTS products but have been configured beyond recognition to a point where they can't be upgraded, and they're so ancient they've been disavowed by their vendors.
