For me the best part is: "Scaling is a journey, not a destination"

One argument I missed here is that vertical scaling has better customisability than horizontal scaling. For example, if your box has 4GB of RAM and 2 CPU cores, but you're only running out of RAM, you can just create a box with 8GB of RAM and 2 CPU cores. Applying horizontal scaling here would mean you'd have to pay for unnecessary cores.

But as he said that if system crashes the whole thing will be down. In horizontal scaling crash won't matter much.

@@Deezedd horizontal and vertical scaling are not mutually exclusive. As a simplified example, I can choose to scale a 100 box 1 core deployment to a 50 box 2 core deployment and vice versa.

What I find funny quite often, are small cloud-based products that are scaled up to 4-8 instances of small VMs ... which Microsoft or Amazon actually run on part of a single larger physical machine. lol.

very informative. I prefer to work on smaller services that can be scaled vertically.

@user-nm2el1xl5o 2 ай бұрын

Hi, great explanation. I'd like to know if it is possible to scale both out and up at the same time? Is it a matter of choice only? Is it prohibited? Or it can be done based on the need?

It's called diagonal scaling

One downside of your vidoes is that you just keep going and the audience can not understand when the topic has changed to moved to another section. You can make videos a bit longer but easier to understand. you also keep showing important information the demographic but there is not much stress on them to make sure that everyone understands them.
