Abstract
One exemplary embodiment involves transmitting a request to a distributed resource system to provide, from a server computer device associated with the distributed computing resource system, network content to a requesting device, the server computer device being located at a geographic location that corresponds to a location of the requesting device. The embodiment further involves measuring at least one of a plurality of performance metrics associated with providing the network content and determining whether to auto scale a plurality of resources associated with the server computer device based at least in part on the at least one of the performance metrics. Additionally, the embodiment involves transmitting a request to the distributed computing resource system to auto scale the resources, responsive to the determination to auto scale the resources associated with the server device.
