Overview
Autoscale is built for sites that can not afford downtime and automatically adjusts infrastructure to help maintain performance and availability during unpredictable traffic surges.
Autoscale is designed for high-traffic eCommerce, media, publishing, and brand sites whose teams use Git-based development or CI/CD workflows. It helps your team focus on the application and the customer experience instead of manually responding to traffic spikes.
