Scalability

ModularIoT is designed to scale horizontally across all components.

Scaling Dimensions

Message Throughput

• Partitioned ingestion
• Parallel processing
• Linear scaling with capacity

Asset Count

• Distributed state management
• Sharded by asset
• No practical limit

Tenant Count

• Tenant isolation without overhead
• Shared infrastructure efficiency
• Per-tenant resource allocation

Component Scaling

Ingestion

• Add receivers for more throughput
• Geographic distribution
• Auto-scaling based on load

Processing

• Stateless workers scale freely
• Work distribution via messaging
• Dynamic cluster sizing

Symptoms Engine

• Partitioned by asset
• State sharding
• Consistent hashing

Storage

• Distributed databases
• Automatic replication
• Tiered storage

Performance Characteristics

• Ingestion latency: < 100ms p99
• Detection latency: < 500ms p99
• Query latency: < 200ms p99 for recent data
