Tutorial: Scale clusters in a private cloud

To get the most out of your Azure VMware Solution private cloud experience, scale the clusters and hosts to reflect what you need for planned workloads. You can scale the clusters and hosts in a private cloud as required for your application workload. You should address performance and availability limitations for specific services on a case-by-case basis.
