App Platform is a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering that allows developers to publish code directly to DigitalOcean servers without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.
- Go to https://cloud.digitalocean.com/apps, click on your app, and click on the Settings tab.
- Click on the resource you’d like to scale.
- Scale your application horizontally by increasing the number of containers, or vertically by increasing the container size.
The total cost of running a component is determined by the container size multiplied by the number of containers.
- Click Save.
