Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You manage an Azure web app that experiences high traffic during business hours and low traffic during the night. You need to configure the app to handle demand during peak hours and conserve resources during off-peak times to optimize cost. What should you configure in the App Service plan?
Configure manual scaling to the maximum number of instances
Upgrade the App Service plan to a higher pricing tier
Enable autoscaling based on CPU percentage
Set up a scheduled scaling rule to increase instances during business hours
Configure a scheduled autoscale profile to scale out the App Service plan during business hours and scale in overnight. This aligns capacity with the predictable workload, providing performance when demand is high while reducing cost when demand is low. Autoscaling based on CPU percentage reacts to runtime metrics but may not follow the known daily pattern. Upgrading to a higher pricing tier or manually setting the plan to its maximum instance count keeps extra capacity provisioned 24/7, incurring unnecessary cost during quieter periods.
