What is Auto Scaling?

Auto Scaling automatically adjusts the volume of your Kingsoft Cloud Elastic Compute (KEC) resources based on the scaling policies that you set. In this way, Auto Scaling helps you ensure that you have the correct number of KEC instances to meet your changing business needs. When your business load drops, Auto Scaling automatically reduces the number of KEC instances to save on resources and costs. When your business load grows, Auto Scaling automatically adds KEC instances to prevent server downtime due to business traffic surge and provide buffer time for troubleshooting.
