Sizing and Scaling

Note

More detailed information about sizing and scaling will be available soon.

For optimal performance, consider the following factors when sizing your Edge IQ deployment:

1. Data Volume: The amount of data processed per day
2. Processing Complexity: The number and complexity of transformations
3. Concurrent Jobs: The number of jobs running simultaneously
4. Network Requirements: Bandwidth and latency considerations
5. Storage Requirements: Data retention and backup needs
