An administrator wants to automatically optimize their scale-out web application in GCP.

To automatically optimize a scale-out web application in Google Cloud Platform (GCP), an administrator should consider using Elastigroup. This tool, offered by Spot by NetApp (formerly Spotinst), is designed to enhance cloud resource utilization by automatically scaling compute resources based on workload demands. Here’s why Elastigroup is suitable:

Automatic Scaling:Elastigroup dynamically manages your compute resources, scaling them up or down based on the application demands. This ensures that your application always has the right amount of resources without over-provisioning.

Cost Optimization:By intelligently leveraging spot instances along with on-demand and reserved instances, Elastigroup reduces costs without compromising application availability or performance.

Integration with GCP:Elastigroup seamlessly integrates with Google Cloud, making it straightforward to manage scaling policies directly within the cloud environment.

Elastigroup’s capabilities make it an excellent choice for optimizing scale-out applications in cloud environments, particularly for managing the balance between performance, cost, and availability.
