Trade-Off Analysis & ADR Matrix

Trade-off 1: Latency vs. Throughput (Request Batching)

Batching reduces serialization and database context-switching overhead by aggregating incoming items into a single bulk operation. However, individual requests wait up to the batch timeout window, directly trading off individual response latency for system-wide capacity.
