Configure autoscaling rules to automatically adjust the number of instances in response to changes in load. You can also adjust the sku to scale vertically and adjust the number of workers in the app server. Alternatively, you could consider deploying the App to a container orchestration platform like Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) for management and scaling. +**Recommendation:** Learn more about Azure Monitor based app service scaling [here](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/manage-automatic-scaling?tabs=azure-portal). Alternatively, you can modify the existing Auto scaling rules. See this documentation on the explanation of the [existing auto scaling rules](/docs/deployment/autoscale_sku.md).
