Auto-Scaling
Quick Answer
Automatically adjusting compute resources based on demand to maintain performance and efficiency.
Auto-scaling adds/removes resources based on load. Scaling maintains performance during spikes. Scaling reduces costs during low traffic. Scaling requires metrics (CPU, request count). Scaling policies determine scaling behavior. Scaling prevents overprovisioning. Scaling requires careful tuning. Scaling is essential for production.
