https://data.openlinksw.com/oplweb/faq/Virtuoso/ScaleQuestion#this

What is the Virtuoso strategy to scale? Is it possible to start small and then add servers if needed?

https://data.openlinksw.com/oplweb/faq/Virtuoso/Answer#this

Yes. You start with Single-Server which scales up to more than 100 billion RDF triples and then migrate to the Elastic Cluster Edition if your scalability demands exceed what's offered by single-server instances.

How do I use Virtuoso to deploy Linked Data to the Web?

https://data.openlinksw.com/oplweb/faq/Virtuoso/VirtDeployingLinkedDataGuideAnswer#this

By leveraing its built-in support for HTTP and deployment of RDF using Linked Data Principles.
