Today, we test the AWS Autoscaling procedure in our lab environment by running the Autoscaling configuration and applying load to our EC2 instances.
You can discover the Auto Scaling option by opening your AWS account and selecting an EC2.
Create a launch template.

EC2 instances begin operating as soon as we activate the Autoscaling group.

We will now test the results by raising the CPU demand on our servers and determine if EC2 instances automatically scale when this load grows after a successful deployment of auto-scaling. Make a.bat text file and save it with the extension ".bat". then run this file several times to see how the autoscaling works.
