Interaction Latency: Square's User-Centric Mobile Performance MetricScyllaDB
Mobile performance metrics often take inspiration from the backend world and measure resource usage (CPU usage, memory usage, etc) and workload durations (how long a piece of code takes to run).
However, mobile apps are used by humans and the app performance directly impacts their experience, so we should primarily track user-centric mobile performance metrics. Following the lead of tech giants, the mobile industry at large is now adopting the tracking of app launch time and smoothness (jank during motion).
At Square, our customers spend most of their time in the app long after it's launched, and they don't scroll much, so app launch time and smoothness aren't critical metrics. What should we track instead?
This talk will introduce you to Interaction Latency, a user-centric mobile performance metric inspired from the Web Vital metric Interaction to Next Paint"" (web.dev/inp). We'll go over why apps need to track this, how to properly implement its tracking (it's tricky!), how to aggregate this metric and what thresholds you should target.

Cloud Services/Apps/Smart gridsS Complex Event processing Cloud Database Sensor data processing Alarm Processing Cloud Hadoop Map/R Jobs Analysis Email,SMS,Phone Notifications Cloud HPC Jobs Real-time Data & Cloud Ref. www.commsvr.com OPC-UA data integration Cloud ERP/CRM ,Dashboard Application logic OPC UA - Frictionless Bridge
3. Medical Devices/Systems Industrial /Plan Automation Building Management Automotive Systems CLOUD COMPUTING SERVICE (IaaS/PaaS) Sensor Info Process data Events Real-time Expert Applications/Smart Grids etc Analytics Communications Web,Email ,SMS,Mobile,Twitter,IM etc Real-time Information/Data Processing/CEP
4. Process and Manufacturing plants have massive historical data + Continuous stream of sensor data, Process and Alarm events etc. Big Data indexing, mining ,Analysis, Combining Complex Event processing etc.
5. The basic problem to be addressed is that of analysis. The sheer amount of data/info.that needs to be managed can be very large. There's data explosion . The challenge is no longer collecting the information. It's about how to analyze live data in a holistic manner The highlight is that big data is about volume, the velocity with which the data travels in and out, and the variety or the number of different data types and sources that are being indexed and managed The data may have to be analyzed in real-time to make decisions before it is saved. The ability to react immediately in real time would be needed to provide very early warnings or remediation actions. Caution : By real-time ,I mean near-realtime scenarios as dealing with the characteristics of hard real-time systems is out of scope .
6. Correlate real-time sensor, plant or alarm data with existing Big data (Historical archives) Analyzing similarities in alarm and fault data. E.g.“Bad Actor” alarm Filtering and resolution (Fast and Smart) Distributed Grep :- Plant data Log stats & analysis Find critical trends of plant or process behavior : provide analytics and recommendations (Improved decision making and time to act) Machine learning :- Plant data information classification, Pattern recognition and predictions (Production or supply chain optimisation,Risk management)
7. It’s no surprise to that data is growing quickly. An IDC study last year confirmed that data is growing faster than Moore’s Law . This means that however you’re processing data today, tomorrow you’re going to be doing it with many more servers….! Clusters will continue to expand within the IT environments. With massive amounts of Plant and process data streaming in ,It is time for Manufacturing and process Industries to leverage Cloud computing to Optimize their IT infrastructure to deal with this effectively Reduce risks (missed opportunities, revenues and disasters) Accelerate innovation in business Derive higher value and returns
8. CEP event correlation engines ( event correlators ) analyze a mass of events, pinpoint the most significant ones, and trigger actions Enable better Operational Intelligence (OI) solutions to provide insight into business operations by running query analysis against real-time/live feeds and event data streams. “ Regular events normally represents a concrete state, a complex event is normally an aggregation of multiple events (not necessarily of the same type) that identify a meaningful event.”
9. Process and analyze location (GPS) & other onboard sensor data from automotive systems against dynamic weather & traffic conditions or routes and provide pro-active nofications and actions (SMS,Voice) if problems were determined. In the event of a vehicle breakdown ,determine and find the location co-ordinates and send information about the nearest vehicle towing service/repair shops,Police stations (SMS,Voice,Map info) to the occupants. In the event of an accident (detected through suitable onboard vehicle sensors and validation),Calculate the location co-ordinates and notify Emergency evacuation, medical services, Police and relatives with fine grained information. (SMS,Voice,Email,Fax) . Vital Physical parameters may also be sent if possible. Process field information/data to optimize medical emergency handling in hospitals… (e.g. ambulance disptach,location tracking, doctor notifcations,preparedness assessment and recommendations etc) Process alarm data from Building management systems and send remote alert notifications. Take remedial control actions through SMS or Voice based responses. Seep through sensor data streams to analyse energy consumption trends and make recommendations for resource optimization
10. Smart grids dealing with digital consumer and industrial power and energy management typically needs a lot of real-time field sensor data . There is an increasing demand to leverage cloud computing and integrate real time data to implement next generation smart grids. Example Drivers .. Increasingly, enterprise clients are concerned about rising utility expenses but they have little or no visibility into the consumption patterns at the plug level.
