Scaling for Success: Why Scalability Is the Forefront of Modern Applications

DZone

JUNE 13, 2023

Scalability has become the biggest buzzword in the world of Modern Applications for a good reason. In short, it is the ability to handle more data, more users, and more demand without sacrificing performance, reliability, or security. It is not uncommon to question why scalability has grabbed the attention of the masses these days.
