Scalable networking
Scalable networking refers to the ability of a computer network to grow and manage increased demand without losing performance. Imagine a highway: when more cars use it, if the road can expand or additional lanes can be added, traffic flows smoothly. Similarly, scalable networks can adjust by upgrading hardware, adding servers, or incorporating more connections. This ensures that as more users or devices connect—like in a growing business or city—the network can handle the increased load efficiently, making sure everyone stays connected without slowdowns or disruptions.
