Q9 Container Apps Domain 1 · 20–25% of exam Priority · Real Exam

Which scale rule type should you use for an app receiving bursty HTTP traffic that must cap at 20 replicas?

  1. A HTTP scale rule with concurrentRequests and maxReplicas 20 (correct answer)
  2. B CPU scale rule with maxReplicas 20
  3. C Cron scale rule
  4. D Manual scale set to 20

Shortcut: The built-in HTTP rule scales on concurrent requests per replica, which tracks bursty traffic far more responsively than CPU. maxReplicas enforces the ceiling.
