This was a lesson we had already learned from our experiences with Amazon retail, but it became even more important for AWS’s API-centric business. This lowered latency more than 2x and delivered more than 10x improvement in latency variability on the network. APIs are forever. No gatekeepers.

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.

Unfortunately, this means that the age-old Telco bugbears will rear their ugly heads again, including latency. 5G, as a fundamental requirement, mandates a 1 millisecond latency from the datasource to its destination. This requires 1 ms network latency. The post Latency: Will it undermine the most interesting 5G use cases?
