Scalability Metrics

Scalability Metrics are quantitative measures used to assess how well a system can handle an increasing amount of work or data without degradation in performance. In trading, this involves measuring how latency and throughput behave as the number of users, order volume, or market volatility increases.

A highly scalable system can handle peak loads efficiently by dynamically allocating resources or processing requests in parallel. These metrics help engineers determine if an architecture is robust enough for long-term growth.

Evaluating scalability is critical when designing systems for high-growth digital asset markets.
