Scalability depends on the deployment model. If you are implementing it on IBM Cloud or any other cloud, the scalability is easy. In the case where you are using your own data centers or on-prem systems, then you will need to scale the data applications yourself, using local answers. That is also a type of grind on the developer or DevOps team. Small- to medium-sized companies deploy Fuse in their environments because it is cheap. For example, a giant corporation in America that has a lot of money will not use Fuse services, they will use MuleSoft for their integration. In Asia and the Middle East, Red Hat Fuse and IBM are the market leaders. IBM acquired Red Hat, so they have two ESB solutions: an expensive one and a cheap one.

One of the features I found most valuable in Red Hat Fuse is that it has a lot of containers so you won't have to worry about load balancing. In the past, there was a cut-off, but nowadays, Red Hat Fuse is moving off of that, so my team is utilizing it the most for load balancing, particularly running goal applications and three to five containers. There's automatic load balancing so you won't have to worry too much. I also found that component-wise, you don't have to do much coding in Red Hat Fuse because everything is configurable, for example, XML-based coding. Coding isn't that difficult. Performance-wise, I also found the solution to be quite good and its processing is quite fast. My team is processing a huge amount of data with the help of Red Hat Fuse.
