Load balancing automatically distributes incoming network traffic across multiple compute resources according to specified rules. Modern applications can generate millions of requests per second, and sharing the load boosts performance and

Function as a Service (FaaS) is a serverless computing model that lets developers write and deploy code in small, independent functions without managing any server infrastructure. Over 50% of organizations now adopt serverless technologies

DNS-over-HTTPS (DoH) is an internet security protocol that encrypts DNS queries by sending them over HTTPS connections on port 443, the same port used for standard HTTPS traffic. Standardized by the IETF in RFC 8484 in October 2018, DoH pre

TLS 1.3 vs 1.2 refers to the comparison between two versions of the Transport Layer Security protocol, a cryptographic standard that encrypts data exchanged between clients and servers to secure network communications. TLS 1.3, finalized in

An “SSL handshake failed” error occurs when a client and server can't complete the initial negotiation process required to establish a secure encrypted connection. This negotiation happens before any data transfer begins and typically compl

TLS 1.3 is the latest version of the Transport Layer Security protocol, standardized in RFC 8446 in August 2018. This cryptographic protocol secures communication between clients and servers across the internet, from web browsing to API cal

DNS load balancing is a technique that distributes incoming network traffic across multiple servers by manipulating DNS responses to improve the availability and performance of applications or services. It works at the application layer (la

An SSL handshake, more accurately called a TLS handshake, is a process that establishes a secure encrypted connection between a client (like a web browser) and a server before any data transfer begins. As of 2024, over 95% of HTTPS websites

API rate limiting is the process of controlling how many requests a user or system can make to an API within a specific timeframe. This mechanism caps transactions to prevent server overload and ensures fair distribution of resources across

Bot mitigation is the process of detecting, managing, and blocking malicious bots or botnet activity from accessing websites, servers, or IT ecosystems to protect digital assets and maintain a legitimate user experience. Malicious bots acco

GeoDNS is a DNS server technology that returns different IP addresses based on the geographic location of the client making the request. This enables geographic split-horizon DNS responses, directing users to servers closest to their physic

Good bots vs bad bots is the distinction between automated software that helps websites and users versus programs designed to cause harm or exploit systems. Malicious bot attacks cost businesses an average of 3.6% of annual revenue.A bot is
