I have a very lightweight PHP script running in my worker environment. CPU utilization is next to nothing. To get my SQS queue under control I have to keep manually launching new workers to bring the number down. How can I get my workers to autoscale when the request count and CPU utilization are low?

  • I've learned that to scale an app like mine, I need to create a custom CloudWatch metric alarm and scaling rule to scale when the queue gets over a certain size. One peculiar note is that new instances seem to process much faster than older instances. All instances are healthy so I'm not sure where the slowdown is occurring. – erb Jun 02 '16 at 15:30
