Scalability

Scalability is a term used to determine a system’s potential to grow. Whether it's hardware, software, infrastructure, or an app, demands often change and increase over time. The scalability of a system is how well it can keep up with such demands, and whether or not various aspects need to be upgraded over time to ensure that the performance remains adequate.  

What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Scalability

SMBs can save time and money by ensuring that all components of their IT systems (including hardware) are scalable. Scalability can also prevent system performance declines that can lead to unsatisfactory customer experiences.
