What is Latency? 

Latency is the delay incurred in communicating a message (the time the message spends “on the wire”).
 The word latent means inactive or dormant, so the processing of a user action is latent while it is travelling across a network.
 Changes in latency are typically unavoidable through changes to your code. Latency is a resource issue, which is affected by hardware adequacy and utilization.
