Setting up Scaling Policies
Scaling policies are configured by defining the trigger metric and the action to be taken when a threshold is met.
Target Tracking: Requires a target metric value (e.g., 50% CPU). The ASG automatically calculates the adjustments needed.
Step Scaling: Requires an alarm threshold, an adjustment type (change/percent), and a cooldown period to prevent thrashing.
Scheduled Scaling: Requires a cron expression or specific time, and the new capacity value (Min, Max, Desired).
