Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Downsizing typically refers to the process of migrating from mainframe systems to smaller, more efficient and cost-effective systems like personal computers, workstations and networks. It involves moving data and applications from a larger platform to a smaller one, while still maintaining the same level of functionality and performance. Upsizing, on the other hand, refers to the process of migrating from smaller systems to larger ones, usually to accommodate growth in data volume or user base. Downgrading and resizing are not commonly used terms in this context.
