Discover the hidden networking secrets that every web programmer should know to enhance application responsiveness and reduce page load times.
This course dives into the networking secrets web programmers often overlook. It focuses on how TCP and HTTP affect web app speed and responsiveness, combining video lectures with practical exploration to troubleshoot and enhance your web applications.
The dirty networking secrets web programmers never think about when designing their applications.
This course will tell you how TCP and HTTP (the transport and presentation-layer protocols used by web-based applications) impact the web application responsiveness and page load time.
We'll look at waterfall diagrams created by web browser development tools, cover the intricate details of TCP and HTTP (including slow start, congestion windows and pipelining), and try to figure out whether SPDY (the next-generation HTTP from Google) makes sense.
The course is delivered via short video lectures in which I gradually expose the problems your web browser faces when trying to fetch all components of a web site, and the solutions you could use to make the process faster.
You can take your time and go at your own pace, or rush through the course and be done in an hour or two. However, I would encourage you to proceed slowly, build your own test environment (using your mobile device or WAN emulator like WANem) and explore what's going on behind the scenes with browser development tools and Wireshark.
</p>By the end of the course, you'll be able to optimize your web server and your web application to reduce the impact of TCP and HTTP on your web application response times.

Outdated.
Not a corse per se, but a recording of a webinar.
All the content is important and delivered quickly and concisely.
I learnt a lot about how the tcp session is established as well as how to optimise it.
A lot of information, could be a bit more examples. But basically it looks good. Thank you and good luck.
very satisfying lession
Quite clear but not so thorough.
very educative, lot of informations very clear conversation.
It was learner good learner course
It could be interesting have some updates taking in consideration new technologies as SDWAN.
