Building a Resilient Server Infrastructure for Peak Demand
Traffic Manager Load Balancer Node 1 4 vCPU/ 16 GB Node 2 4 vCPU/ 16 GB Node 3 4 vCPU/ 16 GB Include nodes indefinitely as need grows. No hard ceiling on the overall capability of the cluster. If one node fails, the load redistributes to staying nodes. Numerous mid-tier servers cost a portion of a comparable high-spec single server, often reducing hardware costs by up to 20. Include or eliminate nodes while the application continues serving traffic.

The system keeps an eye on metrics( CPU utilization, memory, request line depth, reaction time)and activates scaling actions when limits are crossed. It supplies three complementary scaling mechanisms that work together: Scales the number of pod replicas based on CPU, memory, or custom-made metrics.
