Scaling Considerations
Horizontal Scaling
Add nodes dynamically to handle increased load. The mesh automatically rebalances connections and redistributes state.
Vertical Scaling
Increase resources on existing nodes for higher throughput. Memory and CPU scaling provide linear performance improvements.
Network Optimization
Optimize network topology and routing for specific use cases. Geographic distribution and latency optimization strategies.
Enterprise Backup & Disaster Recovery
SocketCloud's advanced backup system provides enterprise-grade data protection with multi-cloud storage adapters, quantum-resistant encryption, and comprehensive integrity verification. Designed for mission-critical financial infrastructure with zero-downtime recovery capabilities.
Multi-Cloud Storage Architecture
Automated replication across multiple cloud providers ensures maximum data durability and availability even during cloud provider outages or regional disasters.
- AWS S3: Primary storage with cross-region replication
- Azure Blob Storage: Secondary backup with geo-redundancy
- Google Cloud Storage: Tertiary backup for triple redundancy
- On-Premise Storage: Local backup for air-gapped security
Advanced Backup Features
Encrypted Backup Storage
- XSalsa20-Poly1305 encryption with quantum-resistant key derivation
- Hardware security module (HSM) key management
- Per-backup unique encryption keys
- Forward secrecy for long-term data protection
Compression & Optimization
- Advanced lossless compression (LZ4, ZSTD algorithms)
- Incremental backup with binary delta compression
- Deduplication across backup generations
- Bandwidth optimization for large-scale deployments
Integrity Verification
- Cryptographic checksums for all backup components
- Multi-level verification (file, block, and metadata)
