---------------------------------------
Summary: Support for manual scaling
Key: STRATOS-716
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STRATOS-716
Project: Stratos
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Autoscaler
Reporter: Nirmal Fernando
Fix For: 4.1.0
It's important that we have an option to scale nodes manually, so that as a
user you could prepare for high load before hand. While implementing this
feature, it's also important to decide whether we should consider these
manually spawned instances for the auto-scaling decision. IMO we shouldn't do
that, otherwise even if we manually spin up instances, they'll be terminated by
the auto-scaler, if there's no actual load. One other important is whether we
should consider stats of these manually scaled nodes. IMO again we shouldn't do
that, otherwise it'll lead the auto-scaler to take incorrect decisions. We need
to discuss these points and also other important points in the mailing list and
decide.
