graceful scaling

French translation: déploiement judicieux

Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) / Procurement
English term or phrase: graceful scaling
As asset procurement lead times can be extended, predicting the need for additional assets before they are required allows for graceful scaling of existing services without costly downtime associated with overuse.

On parle ici de la possibilité de prévoir bien à l'avance le remplacement des équipements informatiques et l'impact sur les services desservis.

Merci pour vos suggestions.

neutral  Michael GREEN: Il me semble que "scaling" dans ce contexte signifie plutôt "mise à l'échelle", "cadrage" ou "réduire l'échelle"

Voici comment j'interprète la phrase :

Comme les délais d’achats peuvent être prolongés [ou reportés], prendre le temps d’évaluer les besoins [en équipements] avant qu’ils ne deviennent nécessaires nous permettrait d’augmenter progressivement les services existants tout en évitant les temps d’arrêts dus à une surutilisation [ou un usage abusif]."

neutral  Michael GREEN: Je suis navré de jouer le trouble-fête, mais "scaling ... without costly down-time associated with overuse" me fait penser qu'il s'agit plutôt de réduire progressivement (donc, risque d'utilisation excessive....)

  -> Merci de votre commentaire Michael. Voyez tout de même la note que j'ai ajoutée. Au bout de compte, nous voyons peut-être la chose d'une manière semblable... avec une manière différente de le dire.

réduction progressive


Explanation:
ou "réduction adaptée"
Je crois qu'il s'agit de réduire le niveau des services existants (ou des équipements) sans tomber dans le piège d'une surexploitation des équipements restants, qui provoquerait des pannes

Note pour Merline :
Votre note est effectivement une autre manière, tout aussi valable, de comprendre le texte !
Je vais cependant résister à la tentation de poser la sempiternelle question, "May we have more context please ...?"

et donc: (sorry for the EN equivalents..) distribution, allocation, ajustement elegant/e, confortable, aise/e
