👉 Burst engineering refers to the practice of rapidly scaling up the capacity or performance of a system, network, or infrastructure to meet sudden and significant increases in demand or load. This approach is often employed in cloud computing, data centers, and network services to ensure that the system can handle peak loads without degradation in performance or availability. Burst engineering typically involves pre-allocating additional resources, such as virtual machines, storage, or bandwidth, which are then dynamically provisioned and released as needed to accommodate the surge in demand. This strategy helps maintain service levels and user satisfaction during critical periods while optimizing resource utilization and cost efficiency during normal operating conditions.
