Scalability : About
Posted by carl.reitschuster on 26th January 2007
Hi reader,
after a benchmarking test of Components of a CRM System with Oracle 10.2 and Sun Solaris with either AMD Opteron or Sun SPARC IV+ CPU’s i started to think about the definition of Scalability. Her it is:
Scalability is about how strong the increase
of the Throughput/decrease of Response Time
of an Application or Software Component is
when additional resources of CPU, Memory and I/O are added;
A second one follows :
Scalability is about how strong the decrease
of the Throughput/increase of Response Time
of an Application or Software Component is
when the workload ( Amount of work, Amount of Concurrency ) increases;
