Assertion (A): Adding instances stops helping once a shared resource becomes the bottleneck.
Reason (R): Every instance contends for the same database, lock or network path.

  • A.A is false but R is true
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A
  • D.A is true but R is false

Answer: B

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism, and the remedy lies in the shared resource rather than in adding yet more instances, which only increase the contention for it. Sharding, caching or a read replica addresses the cause where more instances cannot.
