Accelerating uncacheable dynamic traffic globally

Source: interviewadvanced

WHAT IT TESTS: accelerating non-cacheable traffic. OUTLINE: terminate TLS at a nearby edge and ride the provider backbone via Global Accelerator or CDN dynamic acceleration; add edge compute; ultimately deploy multi-region.

WHAT IT TESTS: knowing that latency for uncacheable traffic is solved by network path and proximity, not caching. ANSWER OUTLINE: even though POSTs are not cacheable, you can terminate the connection at an edge location near the user, cutting round trips for TLS and TCP handshakes, then carry traffic over the provider's optimized backbone using a service like AWS Global Accelerator or a CDN's dynamic acceleration. Push logic to edge compute, and for true wins deploy the application in a region near the user.
