There isn’t a lot of precise info or hands-on article on wowza autoscaling setup. Where can we find some info? Also is it possible to try out clustering or so it’s a trial account? How many instances can we use it’s same trial license ?

Hello, no you cannot test scaling out to clusters in the basic trial due to the 10 connection limit. You could however reach out to [sales@wowza.com](mailto:sales@wowza.com) and request a “testing key” which gives you more options before you buy.

I created this blog to try and cover some of the gap in info on autoscaling. I hope it helps @Connessione.

Thanks a lot. Yes I will contact your sales for evaluating clustering and explore possibilities of autoscaling.
