Hi Zhang, Welcome to the Stratos community!
There are several tasks (based on Drools rules engine) that run in the background to take scaling decisions. You can find those Drools files at [1]. mincheck.drl - is responsible for spawning minimum number of instances defined in the cartridge definition. It will make sure at least minimum number of instances are available at all times. scaling.drl - is responsible for scaling up or down, based on RIF (Request In-Flight), memory consumption, load average values, up to max count defined in the cartridge definition. It also takes into account the max number defined in the network partition definition. The reason for having Drools files is that you can plugin your own scaling logic into Stratos without modifying the code.
