Question - What is the difference between Scalability and Elasticity?
Answer -
Scalability is a characteristic of cloud computing that is used to handle the increasing workload by increasing the proportion of resource capacity. By using scalability, the architecture provides on-demand resources if the traffic is raising the requirement.
Whereas, Elasticity is a characteristic that dynamically provides the concept of commissioning and decommissioning a large amount of resource capacity. It is measured by the speed at which the resources are on demand and the usage of the resources.
