Draft outline details
Step by step
- Write the forecast chain and assumptions with ranges.
- Derive peak RPS and write rate for PostgreSQL.
- Planned mistake: size from the daily average. Fix: apply the burst factor and the Black Friday multiplier; the result is several times larger.
- Estimate Kafka throughput, partitions, and storage with replication and retention.
- Compare with MID load-test limits; name the first bottleneck.
- Add headroom and re-planning triggers.
