E-Books →Latency (MEAP V08)

In Latency you'll learn:

What latency is-and what it is not
How to model and measure latency
Organizing your application data for low latency
Making your code run faster
Hiding latency when you can't reduce it
Put simply, latency is the delay between a cause and effect. In practice, too much latency can create problems throughout a software system, ranging from inaccurate calculations and timeouts to impatient users simply abandoning your applications. Latency issues can be challenging to avoid and troubleshoot. This book balances theory with practical implementations, turning academic research into useful techniques you can apply to your projects.
about the book

Latency shows you how to troubleshoot latency issues in existing systems, and how to create low latency systems from the ground up. You'll discover how your code runs differently on distributed systems, databases, and operating systems, and understand the common latency-causing issues in each situation. Hands-on projects help you apply what you learn.
