scale out
scale out
In computer programming, to add additional servers to handle an increased size or workload of a system, network, or process. Rather than spending so much money scaling up a single server to handle the increase in traffic, why don't we scale out with a lot cheaper servers instead? We should start scaling out the memory cache over multiple machines in the office.
