you made this sound so simple. i wish people like you existed when i was in school, lol.

Please yes more agnostic cloud content!!

Elasticity's purpose is to match the resources allocated with the actual amount of resources required at any given point in time. Scalability, on the other hand, handles an application's changing needs within the constraints of the infrastructure by statically adding or removing resources to meet application demands as needed.

Exactly right, and I'd even go so far as to saying that scaling is the more granular option as you can specify exactly what resources you want where to account for expected demand. Elasticity is dynamic and best used on a pay as you go subscription model where reducing the resources required alongside demand when there isn't very much going on can result in significant cost savings that would otherwise be spent on wasted capacity and increase when the metrics such as load on the systems meet a certain threshold automatically.

I had a vague idea of difference between the 2. The graphs did a great job explaining. Thank Gwyneth

These type of videos are more valuable then most of the others.

I like this type of content. Love to see more of this mentor

Excellent explanation, I can’t stress enough the importance of the learning and teaching the fundamentals, it makes digesting new technologies and tools more productive.

Scalability = Building up an existing resource (Like adding more RAM to a virtual PC). Elasticity = adding more resources to the pool to load balance (adding more availability zones, or virtual resources to handle workloads)... I think?

Thank you for this short but deep video.

This is great! 🙌

I loved this video✨

Great explanation..much easier to grasp now

Great video. Thank you

Hey what's up GPS!!! Thank u very much for this video! This is one of the best explanations of scalability and elasticity I've come across! Their definitions run so close together and you have visually clarified this for me! I appreciate it. I'm definitely gonna use this! And can u post it on your blog maybe? Be well, be safe and Peace!!!

We'll put. Could you say elasticity is more granular?

@@MadeByGPS Sure! With elasticity you have the option to scale in which means your costs reduce when demand reduces.

This is interesting. In a way, aren't they one in the same? Elasticity is simply scaling more rigorously but both are essentially the same. What alternative is there to elasticity as a service and not a concept? With AWS, what would you substitute an ELB for, in terms of scalability? I may have misunderstood - just curious to know. Thanks

This is very interesting. It can be confusing to understand both concept since they look like related to each other. Is auto scaling considered an elastic property??

@MadeByGPS

Autoscaling can be both, just depends on how you implement it.

So does it mean that elasticity comes with low latency? How fast it can scale the resources depending on the traffic?

I use Vertical and Horizontal memes. … What drawing app is that? 🙃🍷

I am currently studying for my AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam and I came across these two concepts. They mean the same in Azure and GCP (I believe). Scalability would be using a more optimized version of the same resource. For example, if you have a spike in load, you will upgrade to a resource that has higher resources. The opposite if there is a drop in the load. Elasticity on the other hand is adding more of the services to handle the extra load and using something like a load balancer to spread the load between the resources. For instance, if you have a virtual machine (EC2 in AWS) and there is a spike in the load, you would put one or more EC2s online and a load balancer would distribute the load among them. Once the load has subsided, those newly added services can be taken down. This is elasticity.
