-Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets provide a scalable way to run applications on a set of virtual machines (VMs). The VMs in a scale set can all have the same configuration and run the same applications or have different configurations and run different applications.

As demand grows, the number of VMs that run in the scale set increases. As demand shrinks, excess VMs can be removed. A Virtual Machine Scale Set is ideal for scenarios that include compute workloads, Big data workloads, and container workloads.
 
 In our example scenario, your customers use one of the company's websites to manage and check the status of their shipments. Because the website is accessed globally, the load is sometimes difficult to predict at any particular time of day. Additionally, loading might vary seasonally, with December being busy because of the holidays at the end of the year. You decide to use a Virtual Machine Scale Set to handle the fluctuating load while maintaining a low response time for customer requests.
 
 In this unit, you explore the features of Virtual Machine Scale Sets. By the end of this unit, you can describe how a scale set works. You learn how a scale set supports scale-out and scale-up scenarios and learn how to use autoscaling and schedule-based scaling to adjust the resources available to a scale set.
 
 ## What is a Virtual Machine Scale Set?
 
-Virtual Machine Scale Sets in Azure are designed to allow you to deploy and manage many load-balanced VMs. Virtual Machine Scale Sets are intelligent enough to automatically scale up or down the number of VM instances.
+Virtual Machine Scale Sets in Azure are designed to allow you to deploy and manage many load-balanced VMs. Virtual Machine Scale Sets are intelligent enough to automatically scale up or down the number of virtual machine (VM) instances.
 
 The criteria used to activate the upscale or downscale can depend on a customized schedule or actual demand and usage. Scale sets can apply the same configuration to a group of VMs simultaneously. They don't require you to manually configure instances individually if you don't want to.

 Azure Spot Virtual Machines allows you to take advantage of our unused capacity at a significant cost savings. At any time when Azure needs the capacity back, the Azure infrastructure evicts Azure Spot Virtual Machines. Therefore, these virtual machines are great for workloads that can handle interruptions like batch processing jobs, dev/test environments, and large compute workloads.
 
-The amount of available capacity can vary based on size, region, time of day, and other factors. When it deploys Azure Spot Virtual Machines, Azure allocates the VMs if there's capacity available, but there's no SLA for these VMs. An Azure Spot Virtual Machine offers no high-availability guarantees. At any point in time when Azure needs the capacity back, the Azure infrastructure evicts Azure Spot Virtual Machines with 30-seconds notice.

At any point in time when Azure needs the capacity back, the Azure infrastructure evicts Azure Spot Virtual Machines with 30-seconds notice.
 
 When Azure needs the computing power again, you receive a notification about the VM Azure removes from your scale set. If you need to clean up or gracefully exit code on your VM, you can use Azure Scheduled Events to react to the notification within the VM. You can also make the scale set try to create another VM to replace the one that's being removed. The creation of the new VM is, however, not guaranteed.

 A one-minute interval is too short to determine whether any change in the metric is long-lasting enough to make autoscaling worthwhile. A scale rule takes a second step, further aggregating the time aggregation's value over a longer, user-specified period. This period is called the *duration*. The minimum duration is five minutes. For example, if the duration is set to 10 minutes, the scale rule aggregates the 10 values calculated for the time grain.
 
-The duration's aggregation calculation can differ from the time grain's aggregation calculation. For example, let's say the time aggregation is *average* and the statistic gathered is *percentage CPU* across a one-minute time grain. For every minute, the average CPU percentage usage across all instances during that minute is calculated. If the time-grain statistic is set to *maximum* and the rule's duration is set to 10 minutes, the maximum of the 10 average values for the CPU usage percentage determines whether the rule threshold has been crossed.

Then, the maximum of the 10 average values for the CPU usage percentage determines whether the rule threshold was crossed.
 
 When a scale rule detects that a metric crosses a threshold, it can do a scale action. A scale action can be a *scale-out* or a *scale-in*. A scale-out action increases the number of instances. A scale-in action reduces the instance count.
 
-A scale action uses an operator such as *less than*, *greater than*, or *equal to* to determine how to react to the threshold. Scale-out actions typically use the *greater than* operator to compare the metric value to the threshold. Scale-in actions tend to compare the metric value to the threshold by using the *less than* operator. A scale action also sets the instance count to a specific level rather than increasing or decreasing the number available.

A scale action also sets the instance count to a specific level rather than increasing or decreasing the number available.
 
 A scale action has a *cool down* period, specified in minutes. During this period, the scale rule isn't triggered again. The cool-down allows the system to stabilize between scale events. Starting or shutting down instances takes time, so any metrics gathered might not show significant changes for several minutes. The minimum cool-down period is five minutes.

 - **Automatic**: The scale set doesn't define when the VMs are upgraded. They could all update at the same time, causing a service outage.
 - **Rolling**: The scale set rolls out the update in batches across the VMs in the scale set. An optional pause can minimize or eliminate a service outage. In this mode, machines in the scale set might run different versions of the app for a short time.
