Effective monitoring ensures the seamless operation of systems, minimizes downtime, and provides insights for continuous optimization. It is a crucial component of enterprise management, enabling businesses to align IT infrastructure with…

  • Virtualization: Type 1 Hypervisor

    A Type 1 hypervisor, also known as a bare-metal hypervisor, is a virtualization technology that operates directly on the physical hardware of a host machine, without the need for an underlying operating system. Unlike Type 2 hypervisors, which run on top of a host operating system, Type 1 hypervisors manage virtual machines (VMs) at the…

  • Distributed System: Vertical scaling

    Distributed Systems: Vertical Scaling Vertical Scaling, often referred to as scaling up, is a fundamental strategy used in distributed systems to enhance system performance by increasing the resources of a single machine or node rather than adding more machines. This approach typically involves upgrading the CPU, RAM, or storage capacity of the existing hardware to…

  • Distributed System : Horizontal Scaling

    Horizontal Scaling is a key strategy for achieving scalability in distributed systems, particularly in cloud computing environments. It refers to the process of adding more computing resources—such as servers, nodes, or machines—into a system to distribute the load. Unlike vertical scaling, which involves upgrading the capacity of a single machine, horizontal scaling focuses on expanding…
