Metrics collection
CPU, memory, storage, network, application latency, queues and database metrics are reviewed.
TECHNICAL ARCHITECTURE & STRATEGY
Capacity & Scaling
Capacity and scaling determines the right compute, memory, storage, network and scaling approach by measuring current utilization, traffic patterns and growth targets.
What is Capacity & Scaling?
Capacity planning is not guess-based server sizing. Average and peak load, sustained demand and bursts, and application and infrastructure bottlenecks must be separated.
We combine measurements with business targets and cost constraints to clarify when vertical, horizontal or architectural scaling is justified.
Service scope
Workload model
Normal, peak, growth and failure scenarios are modeled.
Bottleneck analysis
Resource, application, query, lock, pool and external-service effects are separated.
Scaling design
Vertical and horizontal scaling, caches, queues, replication, load balancing and autoscaling are compared.
Capacity thresholds
Alerts, triggers, headroom and reassessment points are defined.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Who is it for?
- Production systems experiencing latency or resource exhaustion.
- Companies preparing for campaigns, customer growth or higher traffic.
- Teams controlling infrastructure cost without sacrificing performance.
DELIVERABLES
Deliverables
- Capacity and bottleneck report
- Baseline, peak and growth workload model
- Resource sizing recommendation
- Scaling architecture and triggers
- Cost, risk and implementation priorities
How we work
01
Assess the current environment, target and dependencies
02
Document scope, risks, acceptance and rollback
03
Implement, validate and document
Frequently asked questions
Is production data required?
Real metrics provide the strongest result. New systems can begin with load tests, comparable data and explicit assumptions.
Is a larger server always the answer?
No. Application, query, locking or external-service bottlenecks may only make larger hardware more expensive.
Let’s assess your requirements
We review your current environment, target and technical requirements in a 20–30 minute call. Scope, assumptions, deliverables and pricing are documented before work begins.
