Detailed explanation-1: -In a network, latency refers to the measure of time it takes for data to reach its destination across a network. You usually measure network latency as a round trip delay, in milliseconds (ms), taking into account the time it takes for the data to get to its destination and then back again to its source.
Detailed explanation-2: -Network latency is the delay in network communication. It shows the time that data takes to transfer across the network. Networks with a longer delay or lag have high latency, while those with fast response times have low latency.
Detailed explanation-3: -Measure of the responsiveness of a network, often expressed as the round-trip time (in milliseconds); that is, the time between initiating a network request and receiving a response.
Detailed explanation-4: -The amount of latency on this path is the difference between these two times: 0.145 seconds or 145 milliseconds. Most often, latency is measured between a user’s device (the “client” device) and a data center. This measurement helps developers understand how quickly a webpage or application will load for users.
Detailed explanation-5: -Many other types of latency exist, such as RAM latency (a.k.a. “CAS latency"), CPU latency, audio latency, and video latency. The common thread between all of these is some type of bottleneck that results in a delay.
