# Configuring Auto-Scaling Policies

## Overview

Configure auto-scaling policies for cloud workloads across AWS Auto Scaling Groups, GCP Managed Instance Groups, Azure VMSS, and Kubernetes Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA). Generate scaling configurations based on CPU, memory, request rate, or custom metrics with appropriate thresholds, cooldown periods, and scale-in protection.

## Prerequisites

- Cloud provider CLI installed and authenticated (`aws`, `gcloud`, or `az`)
- For Kubernetes HPA: `kubectl` configured with cluster access and metrics-server deployed
- Baseline performance data for the target workload (average CPU, memory, request rate)
- Understanding of traffic patterns (steady, bursty, scheduled)
- IAM permissions to create/modify scaling policies and CloudWatch/Stackdriver alarms
