Scheduled instance group scaling

Written by
Yandex Cloud
Updated at February 27, 2025

In this tutorial, you will create a Yandex Compute Cloud instance group with a scheduled scaling. A Yandex Cloud Functions function triggered by a timer will manage the instance group size.

You can use one of the following tools to configure instance group scaling:

  • Management console, CLI, and API: Use the Yandex Cloud management console, CLI, or API to create your infrastructure step by step.
  • Terraform: Streamline creating and managing your resources using the infrastructure as code (IaC) approach. Download a Terraform configuration example and then deploy the infrastructure using the Terraform Yandex Cloud provider.
