Auto Scaling:AttachServerGroups

Last Updated:May 30, 2024

Attaches server groups to a scaling group. To seamlessly adjust the number of instances in response to changes in your business workload or to maintain the uninterrupted accessibility of your application, you can call the AttachServerGroups operation. By attaching Application Load Balancer (ALB) or Network Load Balancer (NLB) server groups to your scaling group, this operation enables Auto Scaling to automatically tailor your computing capacity to your business needs. Furthermore, it optimizes traffic routing by dynamically allocating incoming requests based on current workload patterns, which significantly improves the stability and performance of your application.

Debugging

OpenAPI Explorer automatically calculates the signature value. For your convenience, we recommend that you call this operation in OpenAPI Explorer. OpenAPI Explorer dynamically generates the sample code of the operation for different SDKs.
