English term or phrase: scale out/scale up a resource
Scaling up a Web service involves moving it to a bigger, faster, more powerful
machine to accommodate increased workloads.

When scaling up is not feasible, you can scale out a resource by hosting it on
a cluster of machines and then distributing the requests made to that resource
across multiple machines in the cluster.

Vergrößern / Auslagern


Explanation:
Scale up wird normalerweise mit "erhöhen" oder "vergrößern" (in diesem Kontext) übersetzt: eine (An)Zahl nach oben erweitern.
Scale out in diesem Kontext wäre wohl "auslagern", ist aber eher eine Vermutung.
