Skalierungsschicht
Skalierungsschicht refers to a layer or component within a system designed to handle increased load or demand. Its primary function is to enable a system to grow and perform efficiently as the number of users, transactions, or data volume increases. This is often achieved through various techniques such as horizontal scaling, which involves adding more instances of a particular component, or vertical scaling, which means increasing the resources of existing components.
In distributed systems, a Skalierungsschicht might involve load balancers that distribute incoming traffic across multiple servers.
