latency

“Data centers need low latency and high-density bandwidth density,” Gastwirth said, referring to fiber-optic technology’s ability to transmit data faster and in greater quantities.

Traditional electronics can no longer reduce latency or increase throughput enough to keep up with today's data-heavy applications.

SoundHound initially chose Oracle as a cloud vendor because the company was looking for a “true partner” and a platform that could provide zero latency, she added.

The AI processing cabinets are jammed in together to eliminate this element of latency and create what the tech sector calls parallel processing, operating as one enormous computer.

With their long latency periods - time between exposure to a cancer-causing factor and the appearance of detectable cancer - treatment outcomes are relatively good.
