Building on top of our redesigned scaling schedules, we’ve now made it possible to scale a process based only on schedules.

In most cases Judoscale supports autoscaling based on metrics like queue time, and you can use schedules in combination with that. Sometimes we may not have an adapter to collect metrics for a language / framework, and it is now possible to scale such processes with schedules, for example to lower the number during nights and weekends, while keeping more running during business hours.

If a process supports metrics for autoscaling, you can still choose to set it up first with scaling schedules only. That’s a good way to get started quickly.

You can go back to the setup to review the instructions at any point, or enable metrics based autoscaling later if support is available.
