Scaling

IBM® Netezza® Performance Server for IBM Cloud Pak® for Data as a Service offers the ability to independently scale your compute resources as needed. With NPSaaS you can initiate scaling by using the web console. You can scale within the same workload contour.

Scaling is an online operation for read only queries where queries get paused during scaling and get resumed automatically after scaling is complete. You also have an option to schedule scaling along with starting an on demand (ad hoc) scaling.

You must have appropriate privileges to launch scaling. For more information, see Managing IAM access for Netezza Performance Server.
