Automatic Scaling automatically adds or removes VM instances based on the need. It analyzes the resource consumption continuously and scales up the allotted resources when necessary to ensure that the application is always responsive and performing optimally.
Customizable scaling policies allow users to define custom scaling policies based on various parameters, such as CPU usage or network utilization and set the desired scaling parameters for the Auto Scaling group.
Multiple granular scaling policies allow you to specify the number of instance creations when the scaling threshold is reached. Users may choose a policy that best suits their workload requirements.
Integration with other IONOS Cloud services, such as the ALB, enables users to optimize resource utilization and improve application scalability.
VM Auto Scaling provides the following benefits:
Improved resource utilization enables you to allocate resources as needed, thus, improving resource utilization and cost efficiency.
Improved application performance ensures the application is always responsive and performing optimally, thus providing a better user experience.
Improved scalability allows you to scale the application easily and quickly, supporting business growth and increasing revenue.
Reduced operational overhead automates the scaling process, reducing the operational overhead of managing and maintaining VM instances.
