Scalability
Software Development and Engineering Practices
Scalability is a system design property describing a system's ability to handle increasing workloads, users, or data volume by adding resources, either by scaling up (adding power to existing machines) or scaling out (adding more machines). Software engineers and architects design for scalability using techniques like load balancing, caching, database sharding, and microservices architecture. It is a key consideration in building applications expected to grow in usage without degrading performance.
