WASABi seems to support autoscaling of Web and Worker roles in Azure public cloud, however it's not clear if the same behavior can be applied to on site Azure Pack (private cloud) instances. Anyone know?

    WASABi isn't really needed with the current SDK2.2 portal, since auto-scaling is a feature of the portal based on CPU or Queue size. Should be available soon in Azure Pack. – viperguynaz Mar 11 '14 at 22:16
  • @viperguynaz I know you can do auto scale on Public Azure based on CPU or queue size, which is awesome and way more simple than using WASABi, however it is not currently a feature in Azure Pack - as far as I can tell. You mentioned "Should be available soon in Azure Pack" - are you sure about that? Do you know specifically when? I'm looking for a little more concrete information. Basically I have a auto scale problem to solve in the short term, and can't really wait for hypothetical features/release dates. – Paul Fryer Mar 12 '14 at 16:00

Auto Scaling is not supported on Azure Pack. Auto scaling is actually an azure wide feature that is not in Azure Pack yet.

I don't have a timeline for your request for the feature yet. (Yes sadly even after an year)

Try Azure Service Fabric they have a lot of cool feature to scale your site up and down and they are connected to both on-premise and on azure. It is worth a look for your scenario.

Happy to help, -CB
