| - | **Scaling Out** takes the infrastructure you’ve got, and replicates it to work in parallel. This has the effect of increasing infrastructure capacity roughly linearly. Data centers often scale out using pods. Build a compute pod, spin up applications to use it, then scale out by building another pod to add capacity. Actual [[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.a_glossary:a:appperform|application performance]] may not be linear, as application architectures must be written to work effectively in a scale-out environment. | + | **Scaling Out** takes the infrastructure you’ve got, and replicates it to work in parallel.
