Autoscaling is a cloud computing capability that automatically adjusts the number of compute resources—such as servers or containers—allocated to an application based on real-time demand. DevOps engineers and cloud architects use autoscaling in platforms like AWS, Azure, and Kubernetes to maintain performance during traffic spikes while minimizing costs during periods of low usage.
