WHAT IT TAKES
Monitor Traffic 1. Use 5 sec sample rates* to measure traffic
volumes 2. Based on sample rates, determine the next
15min capacity requirements
Right-size Infrastructure (auto-scale) 3. Resize system (both ADC and Application
Tiers) to ensure the optimal customer experience, while aligning costs
Eliminate any Degraded component 4. Create new instances and incorporate into
the overall solution, 5. Remove malfunctioning components once
the replacements are available
