Network latency is the delay associated with communication over a network, distinguished from the rate at which data can be transferred. Moving a delivery endpoint closer to demand can reduce some path delay, but does not by itself establish application correctness or independent control.
The round-trip time measures the elapsed time for an exchange to travel to a peer and for a response to return. Feedback-based sending can be limited by this delay as well as by link capacity.
