Running an autoscaling instance group

Written by

Updated at June 9, 2025

In this tutorial, you will deploy an instance group with an autoscaling policy applied to manage extra load. You will place VMs in two availability zones and set up a Yandex Network Load Balancer to distribute load between them.

To configure an autoscaling instance group, you can use the following tools:

  • Yandex Cloud management console, CLI, and API: Use one of these methods 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 from the GitHub repository and then deploy your infrastructure using the Terraform Yandex Cloud provider.
