The elasticity of a data store relates to the flexibility of its data model and clustering capabilities. The greater the number of data model changes that can be tolerated, and the more easily the clustering can be managed, the more elastic the data store is considered to be. ==Types== ===Clustering elasticity=== Clustering ela

A measure of responsiveness of one economic variable to another -- usually the responsiveness of quantity to price along a supply or demand curve -- comparing percentage changes (%D) or changes in logarithms (d ln). The arc elasticity of x with respect to y is e = %Dx/%Dy. The point elasticity is e = d lnx/d lny = (y/x)(dx/dy).

Elasticity indicates how one variable responds to a change in another variable. The main types of elasticity are elasticity of demand (price, cross price, income, advertising), and the elasticity of supply (price). The value can be either elastic or inelastic. An elastic value implies that the there will be a significant change in the quantity due

A material is elastic if it returns to its original shape after being deformed. The maximum load that a body can experience and still return to its original shape is known as the Elastic Limit.MetalsThe elastic limit is defined as the 0.2% offset yield strength. This represents the stress at which the stress-strain curve for uniaxial tensile loadin

A measure of responsiveness. The responsiveness of behavior measured by variable Z to a change in environment variable Y is the change in Z observed in response to a change in Y.
