Usage-Based/Metered Auto Scaling

  • Last updated on

The Usage-Based/Metered Barracuda Web Application Firewall instance’s auto scaling works the same as Pay-As-You-Go/Hourly auto scaling. For more information, see Pay-As-You-Go/Hourly Auto Scaling.

To successfully launch and use the metered AMI, the account being used to launch the instance must have the ability to use the “AWSMarketplaceMeteringFullAccess” IAM role with “Allow All” permissions. If these permissions are not available, the instance will not be launched successfully.

The Usage-Based auto scaling CFT is available on GitHub.

For more information about the metering service, see the AWS Documentation.
