Introduction: Auto Scaling Groups (ASG)
Understand how Auto Scaling Groups help maintain scalable and reliable AWS applications by automatically adjusting EC2 instances based on demand. Explore launch templates, scaling policies, and integration with Elastic Load Balancers to manage fluctuating workloads efficiently. This lesson prepares you to implement flexible, cost-effective scaling strategies critical for high availability and performance in cloud-native environments.
We'll cover the following...
Auto Scaling groups (ASGs) ensure our applications are flexible, reliable, and always available in the cloud. They are essential for maintaining optimal performance, especially when facing high demand. In this lesson, we’ll learn about ASGs and explore their operations and important role in scaling our AWS-hosted applications.
What are ASGs?
Auto Scaling groups (ASGs) are an AWS service that automatically adjusts the number of EC2 instances running an application based on demand. We can consider an ASG a system that monitors our application’s traffic. When demand increases, ASGs add more instances to ...
