While deploying Precision Time Protocol (PTP) at Meta, we’ve developed a simplified version of the protocol (Simple Precision Time Protocol – SPTP), that can offer the same level of clock synchronization as unicast PTPv2 more reliably and with fewer resources. Complete trust in the validity of server timestamps.

Implementing Precision Time Protocol (PTP) at Meta allows us to synchronize the systems that drive our products and services down to nanosecond precision. This not only consumes extra resources but also significantly delays the read because of the long network round-trip delay. The PTP architecture Regional PTP architecture.
