Autoscale is a built-in cloud management service in Azure that automatically dynamically adjusts the number of active computing resources allocated to an application based on real-time demand, metrics, or defined schedules.
Horizontal scaling with autoscale provides the exact elasticity needed to align resource consumption directly with fluctuating demand. Unlike static provisioning, it ensures high availability during peak traffic while delivering automated cost optimization during off-peak hours.
