Announcing gateway-level metrics and native autoscaling for Azure API Management v2 tiers: Basic v2, Standard v2, and Premium v2. These updates give you deeper visibility into gateway performance and enable automatic scaling based on real-time usage.
Gateway-level metrics include CPU and memory usage per gateway instance, providing the insights needed for monitoring, diagnostics, and intelligent scaling. With these metrics, you can define autoscale rules in Azure Monitor to automatically increase or decrease gateway instances, ensuring consistent performance without manual intervention.
Autoscaling helps maintain reliability during traffic spikes, improves operational efficiency, and optimizes costs by scaling in when demand drops. It’s ideal for APIs with unpredictable traffic, enterprise workloads requiring resilience, and teams looking to balance performance and cost.
