Scalable Software

Scalable software means software with capacity that can grow to meet increasing demand.
Scalable software can operate with high volumes of transactions or data and can take advantage of multiple processors or multiple servers if necessary, to achieve the growth needed to manage expanding transaction volumes.
The capacity of truly scalable systems can grow with increases in available resources, non-scalable systems have a fixed limit to their capacity, placing a fixed limit on the ability to do business. Many software systems are actually non-scalable, creating a barrier on the ability to grow the business.
What this means is that your system should be able to process more transactions, simply by adding more hardware resources such as servers or processors.

Benchmarking


Not all software written today is scalable - are you sure your software is ?
Benchmarking is a process involving a series of custom designed repeatable tests to analyse performance under high stress and volume conditions. Distinct Software can help benchmark your software and analyse the results to find out where bottlenecks exist, find out what the software is capable of and then help you fix the problems.
