Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Performance Efficiency > PERF 02. How do you select your compute solution? > Use the available elasticity of resources

The cloud provides the flexibility to expand or reduce your resources dynamically through a variety of mechanisms to meet changes in demand. Combined with compute-related metrics, a workload can automatically respond to changes and utilize the optimal set of resources to achieve its goal.

See Use the available elasticity of resources for more information.
