When looking to make performance improvements, it is natural to look for that ”single” big problem. But, that’s hardly ever the case.
I've worked on making performance improvements across all tiers, and in a variety of ways within any given tier, during the course of my career and one thing I can say with a good degree of certainty is that it gets more challenging as you get closer to your goal. Reducing a page rendering time from 3 seconds to 1 second is a whole lot easier than reducing it to 900ms, then to 800ms, and then to 50ms! #snowpal aws.snowpal.com

You have to make a conscious effort to keep your code base DRY. Every time you make a change, add a feature, or fix a bug, make an effort to find duplication and to determine design patterns. This will play a huge role in keeping your code DRY, and maintainable in the long run. #snowpal aws.snowpal.com learn.snowpal.com
