Air Container supports Autoscaling and Scheduled Scaling so you can operate replica counts based on your traffic patterns.

​
Autoscaling

Autoscaling automatically adjusts replica counts based on conditions. When enabled during resource configuration, you can set minimum and maximum replicas.

​
When you need autoscaling

  • Request volume varies significantly by time of day
  • You want to reduce latency while improving operational efficiency
  • Manual replica management is not practical

​
Scheduled Scaling

Scheduled Scaling adjusts replicas on a time-based schedule. For predictable traffic patterns, you can turn autoscaling on/off at certain times and set replica counts.

​
Example

If traffic increases daily from 11:30 AM to 6:30 PM:
  • 11:30 AM: Autoscale On, Min 1 / Max 3
  • 6:30 PM: Autoscale Off, Replica 1

​
Operational tips

  • Keep minimum replicas low when baseline traffic is small
  • Use Scheduled Scaling for expected events/time windows
  • Review real replica changes regularly in the Usage view
