What is the difference between horizontal and vertical scaling?

The difference between horizontal and vertical scaling is that horizontal scaling can scale in or out the number of virtual machines. When a company is able to scale 'out' horizontally, it means that the number of virtual machines can be increased. If instead, the organization can scale 'in' (horizontally), the number of virtual machines would decrease. vertical scaling means the power that can be added or taken away from virtual machines. We can vertically scale 'down' or 'up' a virtual machine. This means that the power will be more (scale up), or less (scale down). By increasing the disk space, memory, size of hardware, and the speed of the CPU, organizations can make a virtual machine more powerful.

What is the key benefit of an event-driven application?

The key benefit of an event-driven application is that the application is activated when there is an action generated. Additionally, there are no charges until this activation occurs since the code is not running until there is an event, which can be a click or pressing a key.
