AWS, JavaScript, React - Deploy Web Apps on the Cloud - Vertical Scaling

This video tutorial demonstrates how to scale system resources vertically using Lennode. It begins with powering off the server, followed by selecting a new plan to upgrade resources such as RAM, CPU, and storage. The tutorial also covers important considerations for disk resizing and concludes with confirming changes and rebooting the server. The next lecture will cover horizontal scaling.

What is the first step you should take when preparing to scale a server on Linode?

• Upgrade the server plan

• Power off the server

• Check the server's current status

• Contact Linode support

When selecting a new plan for vertical scaling, what is a key consideration regarding disk space?

• Disk space cannot be resized once increased

• Disk space is automatically adjusted to the new plan

• Disk space is irrelevant to scaling

• Disk space can be reduced later

Why might you choose not to automatically resize the disk when scaling up?

• To save on costs

• To maintain the option to scale down later

• To avoid data loss

• To increase server speed

What must you do to confirm the changes after selecting a new plan?

• Contact customer support

• Wait for an email confirmation

• Type out the label of the instance

• Restart the server

What is the final step in the vertical scaling process?

• Resize the disk

• Check the server's status

• Power on the server

• Select a new plan
