🔼 Vertical scaling, also known as scale-up, is a method of enhancing system performance by adding more power (CPU, RAM) or storage capacity to an existing machine.
Notes
TakeAways
- 📌 Vertical scaling improves system performance by adding resources to an existing machine.
- 💡 It allows for increased capacity without adding new machines.
Process
- Identify bottlenecks or resource limitations in the current system.
- Upgrade hardware components (CPU, RAM, storage) to address these issues.
- Monitor performance and adjust resources as needed.
Thoughts
- 📝 Consider the cost of upgrades versus horizontal scaling.
- 🔒 Ensure proper security measures are in place for increased capacity.
