Understanding Elasticity on the Cloud

Explore the concept of elasticity in cloud computing and how it enables automated scaling of resources to meet demand efficiently. Understand traditional scaling methods like scale-up and scale-out, their limitations, and how elasticity transforms application architecture by reducing costs and improving utilization. This lesson helps you design elastic cloud architectures that dynamically adjust resources, overcoming fixed infrastructure constraints and better aligning capacity with actual usage.

The graph below illustrates the different approaches a cloud architects can ...
