Scalability is often confused with elasticity. Both are related to the number of requests that can be made concurrently in a system, but they are treated differently in architecture. In this lesson Mark Richards defines the differences between scalability and elasticity and demonstrates how they relate to the layered architecture, event-driven architecture, microservices, and finally space based architecture.
