Network and data access latency can kill mobile app performance. This problem is even more difficult to solve when building a mobile application that needs global availability. Grindr, a leading mobile dating app used by millions of people in over 200 countries, overcame a series of performance challenges which enabled us to bring our service as close to our customers as possible.

In this TechTalk you will learn:
