Ever had a moment when your auto-scaling group decided it was more ambitious than necessary — i set mine to handle traffic spikes, and it went from two instances to twenty in less than a minute during a demo. Safe to say, my budget didn’t appreciate that surprise party! Anyone else have a scaling horror story?
That’s a classic! It’s like your auto-scaling group got into the caffeine too early — talk about an overreaction! Next time, maybe set a max limit or add some cool-down time?
I totally feel you on that! I had a similar experience where the scaling kicked in way too aggressively, and it turned my demo into a budget nightmare. I learned the hard way to set a more aggressive cooldown period after scaling events — it keeps things a bit more manageable. Have you thought about adjusting your thresholds?
