Elastic Scaling in Actian Data Platform
Actian Corporation
October 4, 2019
By moving applications to the cloud, users can benefit from various opportunities the cloud environment offers.
One of these opportunities is the availability of a seemingly infinite amount of resources, enabling users to match their requirements by scaling their applications according to their load. Nevertheless, load may change over time and does not always follow a predictable behavior.
Actian will therefore offer a new elastic scaling feature, allowing users to quickly respond to requirement changes by scaling the system in a fast way without a shutdown. This solution brief provides a peek under the hood of the new elastic scaling feature, describing the basic concepts behind it from an engineering point of view.
