Sometimes we receive inquiries that make even our most experienced engineers smile.
The Request
Recently, we received an email asking us to predict the exact server performance for an application that had not yet been developed. Including precise response times under load, the optimal server configuration, and a guarantee that everything would work as desired.
Our Honest Answer
We can do many things — but seeing into the future is not one of them. What we offer instead:
- Experience-Based Estimates: Based on comparable setups, we can provide recommendations
- Flexible Scaling: When requirements grow, we scale with them
- Test Environment: We are happy to provide a test environment where you can test your application before going live
The Moral
It is perfectly fine not to know the exact requirements yet. What matters is having a partner who can respond flexibly. And that is something we can do.
