AUTO-SCALING A POOL OF VIRTUAL DELIVERY AGENTS

Abstract:

Systems and methods described herein provide auto-scaling of virtual delivery agent services. The system can identify data indicating consumption of a pool of active virtual delivery agents over a plurality of previous time frames. The system can determine a usage metric for a time frame of the plurality of previous time frames based on the data indicating consumption of the pool of active virtual delivery agents. The system can control, responsive to an auto-scale setting of the pool based on the usage metric, a number of active virtual delivery agents in the pool for a future time frame that corresponds to the time frame of the plurality of previous time frames.
