Description of assignment

At Vanderlande, we are building a new data backbone that enables applications across our global organization to exchange information reliably and seamlessly. While high message reliability is essential, satisfying strict latency demands is equally critical. As we continuously add new features and capabilities to this Data Layer, understanding their impact on data processing speed becomes vital. Currently, we lack clear insights into how software updates affect message latency.

In this technical graduation assignment, you will take ownership of creating a comprehensive Latency Impact Framework. You will research which architectural changes cause latency bottlenecks, quantify their exact impact, and build a framework that predicts the 'latency costs' of new functionalities before implementation. Your research will directly safeguard the performance and scalability of Vanderlande's core data infrastructure.
