HTTP Compression - boost your server’s speed

Enabling compression can help for better latency and cost reduction as fewer bytes are being transferred over the network. At Dynamic Yield we are processing 80% fewer bytes per minute after enabling the compression and our latency was improved by ~15%. Examples in different frameworks/languages:.Tornado (Python)   “Hello, world” string replaced by “x” * 1024 for this demonstration. compress_response=True was added to the Application’s constructor.
