title: Autoscaling Resources

Autoscaling allows organizations to dynamically manage compute resources based on demand, optimizing efficiency and cost.
|
||||
ClearML provides the options to automate your resource scaling, while optimizing machine usage.
|

Autoscaling allows you to dynamically manage compute resources based on demand, optimizing efficiency and cost.
|
||||
|
||||
When running machine learning experiments or large-scale compute tasks, demand for resources fluctuates. Autoscaling ensures that:
|
||||
- **Resources are available when needed**, preventing delays in task execution.

### GUI Autoscaler Applications

|

For users on Pro and Enterprise plans, ClearML provides a UI applications to configure autoscaling for cloud
|
||||
resources. These applications include:
|
||||
* [**AWS Autoscaler**](../webapp/applications/apps_aws_autoscaler.md): Automatically provisions and shuts down AWS EC2 instances based on workload demand.
|
||||
* [**GCP Autoscaler**](../webapp/applications/apps_gcp_autoscaler.md): Manages Google Cloud instances dynamically according to defined budgets.

* [AWS Autoscaler](../webapp/applications/apps_aws_autoscaler.md): Automatically provisions and shuts down AWS EC2 instances based on workload demand.
|
||||
* [GCP Autoscaler](../webapp/applications/apps_gcp_autoscaler.md): Manages Google Cloud instances dynamically according to defined budgets.
|
||||
|
||||
These applications allow users to set up autoscaling with minimal configuration, defining compute budgets and resource limits directly through the UI.
|
||||
|
||||
### Kubernetes Autoscaling
|
||||
ClearML integrates with **Kubernetes**, allowing agents to be deployed within a cluster. Kubernetes handles:
|
||||
- Automatic pod creation for executing tasks.
|
||||
- Resource allocation and scaling based on workload.
|
||||
- Optional integration with Kubernetes' **Cluster Autoscaler**, which adjusts the number of nodes dynamically.
|
||||
### Kubernetes Integration
|
||||
|
||||
This is particularly useful for organizations already using Kubernetes for workload orchestration.
|
||||
You can install `clearml-agent` through a Helm chart.
|
||||
|
||||
ClearML integrates with Kubernetes, allowing agents to be deployed within a cluster. Kubernetes handles:
|
||||
* Automatic pod creation for executing tasks.
|
||||
* Resource allocation and scaling based on workload.
|
||||
* Optional integration with Kubernetes' cluster autoscaler, which adjusts the number of nodes dynamically.
|
||||
|
||||
The Clearml Agent deployment is set to service a queue(s). When tasks are added to the queues, the agent pulls the task
|
||||
and creates a pod to execute the task. Kubernetes handles resource management. Your task pod will remain pending until
|
||||
enough resources are available.
|
||||
|
||||
You can set up Kubernetes' cluster autoscaler to work with your cloud providers, which automatically adjusts the size of
|
||||
your Kubernetes cluster as needed; increasing the amount of nodes when there aren't enough to execute pods and removing
|
||||
underutilized nodes. See charts for specific cloud providers.
|
||||
|
||||
For more information, see [ClearML Kubernetes Agent](https://github.com/clearml/clearml-helm-charts/tree/main/charts/clearml-agent).
|
||||
|
||||
:::note Enterprise features
|
||||
The ClearML Enterprise plan supports K8S servicing multiple ClearML queues, as well as providing a pod template for each
|
||||
queue for describing the resources for each pod to use. See [ClearML Helm Charts](https://github.com/clearml/clearml-helm-charts/tree/main).

Users can build their own autoscaler using the [`clearml.automation.auto_scaler.AutoScaler`](https://github.com/clearml/clearml/blob/master/clearml/automation/auto_scaler.py#L77) class which enables:
|
||||
* Direct control over instance scaling logic.
|
||||
* Custom rules for resource allocation.
|
||||
* Budget-conscious decision-making based on predefined policies.
|
||||
|
||||
This method requires some scripting.
|
||||
An `AutoScaler` instance monitors ClearML task queues and dynamically adjusts the number of cloud instances based on workload demand.
|
||||
By integrating with a [CloudDriver](https://github.com/clearml/clearml/blob/master/clearml/automation/cloud_driver.py#L62),
|
||||
it supports multiple cloud providers like AWS and GCP.
|
||||
|
||||
$$$$$See the AWS Autoscaler Example to see the `AutoScaler` class in action. This script can be adjusted to scale GCP resources
|
||||
as well
|
||||
See the [AWS Autoscaler Example](../guides/services/aws_autoscaler.md) for a practical implementation using the
|
||||
AutoScaler class. The script can be adapted for GCP autoscaling as well.

||||

||||
demonstrates how to use the clearml.automation.auto_scaler module to implement a service that optimizes AWS EC2 instance scaling according to a defined instance budget
