The scalability of an application is a measure of the number of users it can effectively support at the same time. The point at which an application cannot handle additional users effectively is the limit of its scalability. Scalability reaches its limit when a critical hardware resource runs out...
Method, system, and program product for analyzing a scalability of an application serverUnder the present invention, a test configuration is provided. The test configuration sets forth a particular enterprise computer architecture of nodes, servers and resources, as well as a quantity of components/...
Scalability refers to the ability of an application to predictably handle more load. An application exhibits linear scalability if the maximum amount of load that an application can sustain is directly proportional to the hardware resources that the application is running on. For example, if an ...
Scalability describes an application's or system's ability to handle an increasing amount of work by adding more resources to it.In our example scenario, the amount of work experiencing an increase is the number of customer requests. The amount of added resources can be represented in two ways...
We investigated the scalability issue on a commercial OODBMS with a focus on the scalability with respect to the number of objects. Our approach was a benchmark experiment using the loading and indexing of SGML text documents as an application. The application was characterized by its small ...
An application program would be scalable if it could be moved from a smaller to a larger OS and take full advantage of the larger OS in terms of performance, user response time, and the larger number of users that could be handled.This...
Design your workload so that it's balanced across different modules of an application to scale respectively. Also consider service limits on tenancy and compartment quotas. For example, you can create 50 load balancers and 5000 MBps for an Oracle Universal Credits subscription model (as of today...
Hereby, the contribution of upload capacity provided by each peer to the network is the basic principle. BitTorrent is a very popular p2p application for file-sharing which is optimized for fast file dissemination. Key component is its tit-for-tat strategy to decide to whom a peer should ...
In Advance replication, data can be read and written on replicas. Advanced, symmetric data replication proves helpful for many types of applications which are having very specific requirements. It can be helpful for an application that works in a disconnected environment and works in OLTP mode. It...
to achieve, infinite vertical scalability is impossible. If you are building capacity for a pre-determined number of users, it might be wise to investigate vertical scalability. But if you are building a web application which could be used by millions, going vertical could be an expensive ...
