--explanation--

Scale up means to increase capacity or resources to handle more demand. For example:

• The company plans to scale up production next year. - The company wants to increase how much they make in the future.

• If the app is successful, we can scale up the team. - If the app does well, you can hire more people to help.

James is suggesting that they increase server capacity so they can handle more users at once.
