scalability
Scalability involves beginning with only the resources you need and designing your architecture to automatically respond to changing demand by scaling out or in. As a result, you pay for only the resources you use. You don’t have to worry about a lack of computing capacity to meet your customers’ needs.
Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling
If you’ve tried to access a website that wouldn’t load and frequently timed out, the website might have received more requests than it was able to handle. This situation is similar to waiting in a long line at a coffee shop, when there is only one barista present to take orders from customers.
Within Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling, you can use two approaches: dynamic scaling and predictive scaling.
Dynamic scaling responds to changing demand.
Predictive scaling automatically schedules the right number of Amazon EC2 instances based on predicted demand.
To scale faster, you can use dynamic scaling and predictive scaling together.
