VM Auto Scaling

IONOS VM Auto Scaling is a cloud computing feature that modifies the number of Virtual Machine (VM) instances in your Virtual Data Center (VDC) automatically based on changes in demand (or the load on your VM).

Note: VM Auto Scaling is currently in the Early Access (EA) phase. We recommend keeping usage and testing to non-production critical applications. For more information, please contact your sales representative or customer support. EA rollout has its limitations. For more information, see limitations.
