This will lead to lighter processing on the tablet. According to Amazon, the cloud functions as a limitless cache where images, CSS, JavaScript are stored for the most common visited pages. When clicking a link, the request is being delivered to the cloud, which fetches the elements, optimizes them and loads them to the mobile device. The main systems are on the Kindle Fire, and the additional elements are found remotely on the Amazon Cloud. So what is split architecture? The tasks included in the process of web browsing are split between the tablet and the back end, which is in the cloud. Because tablets are mobile and not as high performing as desktop or laptops, this is the logical next step: keeping the web browsing fast and simple, while having all the elements that consume many resources stored in the cloud. The speed is so much increased, that a task which is usually performed in 100 milliseconds, will only take 5.īut how does this happen? The secret lies on its split architecture. To achieve faster speeds, the browser is leveraging the cloud, specifically, the Amazon Web Services and the EC2 cloud. A cloud accelerated mobile browser, I believe that Amazon Silk will prove to be a stepping stone in the development of browsers. One of the latest tablets from Amazon, Kindle Fire, introduces a new web browser called Amazon Silk.
