Design Microservices Architecture with Patterns and Principles - Introduction - Scale the Microservices Architecture Des

The video tutorial discusses scaling microservice architectures, focusing on both vertical and horizontal scaling. It explains scalability, the differences between vertical and horizontal scaling, and how each method can be applied to handle increased requests. Vertical scaling involves enhancing a single server's resources, while horizontal scaling adds more servers to distribute the load. The tutorial also covers the importance of stateless and stateful applications in scaling and introduces the concept of the scale cube for microservices.

What is scalability in the context of microservices?

Explain the difference between horizontal scaling and vertical scaling.

Describe the concept of vertical scaling and its limitations.

What are the advantages of horizontal scaling in distributed architectures?

How can load balancing be achieved in a horizontally scaled architecture?

What considerations must be taken into account when scaling stateful services?

What is the scale cube and how does it relate to microservice scaling?
