How it works
We calculate a scaling-urgency score
Signals are summed and boosted if monthly traffic growth is 20% or higher, since fast growth compounds pressure.
Get the resource to scale first
The tool identifies your single largest bottleneck so you scale the right resource instead of guessing.

Frequently asked questions
How is the top bottleneck chosen?
The resource (CPU, memory, database, or API layer) with the highest individual pressure score is flagged as the top bottleneck, so you know where to focus first.
Is this a replacement for real infrastructure monitoring?
No. It's a fast, rule-based check using numbers you already know. A dedicated monitoring platform with live metrics and alerting will catch issues continuously and with far more precision.
Why does traffic growth increase the score?
The same resource pressure becomes urgent much faster when traffic is growing quickly. A 20%+ monthly growth boost reflects that without needing full capacity-planning models.
