Horizontal scaling
The practice of increasing system capacity by adding more machines or servers rather than upgrading existing hardware, improving performance through distribution.
What is Horizontal scaling?
What is Horizontal scaling?
Horizontal scaling increases a system’s capacity by adding more servers or nodes instead of upgrading a single machine. This distributed approach improves performance, reliability, and fault tolerance. It allows applications to handle higher traffic loads and scale automatically as demand grows. Horizontal scaling is a key principle of cloud-native architecture and is commonly used in microservices, containerized environments, and distributed databases.
