Scalability Assessment
Purpose
Assess a system for growth bottlenecks.
Inputs to request
- •Current throughput and growth projections.
- •Architecture and data stores.
- •Cost constraints and SLOs.
Workflow
- •Estimate load characteristics and growth assumptions.
- •Identify bottlenecks in compute, storage, and IO.
- •Propose scaling strategies and cost impacts.
Output
- •Scalability findings and recommendations.
Quality bar
- •Explicitly state assumptions and limits.
- •Include cost and operational tradeoffs.
