I have created a puppeteer's bot a put it inside a docker container. Until there, no problem !

But now i need to scale it(by duplicattion) when there is a new request. In fact, if the bot already works on a request, i want an auto scale to a second.

Second question, for you is it better to host it on cloud or a dedicated server ?

I tried to do something with Amazon ECS and fargate but i'm a newbe with thoses technology and i can't do anything which work.

If you have any suggestion, you're welcome

Thank you a lot for your responses and sorry for my bad English ;)

I want to use a docker application container with auto scale on request. Not a scaling on ressources but on the request.

I tried to do it on Amazon ECS without success. I'm open to other hosting solutions.

CodePudding user response：

If you just want to run one application container and scale depending on load, take a look at AWS App Runner. It allows you to set a limit on concurrent requests a container can serve, and scale up when that threshold is reached - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/apprunner/latest/dg/manage-autoscaling.html

Alternatively if it doesn't have to be AWS, this sounds like a use case that would fit the Cloud Run service on Google Cloud.
