Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Set up automatic scaling for your Amazon MSK cluster

You can use the Amazon MSK console, the Amazon MSK API, or Amazon CloudFormation to implement automatic scaling for storage. CloudFormation support is available through Application Auto Scaling.

Note

You can't implement automatic scaling when you create a cluster. You must first create the cluster, and then create and enable an auto-scaling policy for it. However, you can create the policy while Amazon MSK service creates your cluster.
