Comparação entre escala vertical e horizontal de recursos computacionais em soluções IoT

Abstract

The present work addresses vertical and horizontal scaling of computing resources in the cloud, to handle large volumes of industrial productivity data captured by IoT devices in real time. The need for this work arises from the identification of performance problems in an application that processes information from IoT devices in the industrial environment. The possibilities for solutions raised to resolve these problems are divided into two, the vertical or horizontal scale of cloud resources. For a decision to be made, tests and comparisons are necessary in order to define which form of scale is the most viable. After testing, it was possible to observe that both scales are necessary, but the horizontal scale proved to be cheaper, but also more complex to implement.
