Question 6
Joan noticed that one of the servers, which she was responsible for, was slowing down due to a spike in traffic.

This meant that the requests had to wait for a longer period of time before they could be processed. This delay was unacceptable to the business; hence, Joan added some extra virtual memory to the server to smooth things out. What is such a feature called?
Transparency
Monotonicity
Openness
Scalability
Question 7
