Problem Statement
The autoscaling feature on Clever Cloud lacks official documentation, creating confusion for users who want to:
- Understand how autoscaling works (triggers, limits, behavior).
- Configure it properly for their applications.
- Troubleshoot common issues (e.g., unexpected scaling, cost implications).
Customer Impact:
- Users rely on trial-and-error or community forums, leading to suboptimal configurations.
- Risk of misconfigured apps (over/under-scaling) due to unclear guidelines.
Proposed Solution
Create a dedicated documentation page covering:
- Concepts:
- How autoscaling is triggered (CPU, RAM, requests, etc.).
- Default thresholds and customization options.
- Interaction with other features (e.g., vertical scaling, add-ons).
Expected Benefits
| For Users | For Clever Cloud |
|---|---|
| ✅ Clear guidance for setup | ❌ Fewer support requests |
| ✅ Reduced misconfigurations | 📊 Better user adoption of the feature |
| ✅ Faster troubleshooting | 🔄 Lower operational overhead |
