High Throughput Low Latency

Definition

High throughput low latency describes a system’s ability to process a large volume of data or transactions quickly and with minimal delay. High throughput refers to the quantity of operations completed within a given timeframe, while low latency indicates the short time taken for a single operation to complete. Achieving both is a significant technical challenge in distributed systems. This combination is highly desirable for efficient digital asset exchanges and rapid transaction confirmations.
