If our workload utilization is inconsistent, it is better to use AWS Auto Scaling. If we have a hard-coded number of instances running, we might be wasting Compute if we don't have enough workload. The health check is one of the key features integrated with the tool. If one of my instances goes down, the health check feature identifies and creates another instance to ensure the minimum number of instances required for the workload is available. The product provides self-healing features. It helps to keep my instances running. If something goes wrong, the instances will be up due to the self-healing features.

AWS Auto Scaling is a good platform. I like the graphs provided by the tool. Predictive scaling, smart scaling policies, and Auto Scaling groups are valuable features. Our EC2 instance can be automatically scaled to several instances set by the user. It can be used on Amazon ECS, Amazon DynamoDB, and other AWS services.

The tool's most valuable feature is vertical auto-scaling, which is easy to use. However, most companies now prefer horizontal scaling. I set up the health check integration to monitor CPU usage. When it reaches seventy percent, it sends me an email notification.
