Amazon AWS
It is well suited for scaling up our cloud virtual machines to handle the increase or decrease in workload. It really helps us to satisfy the demand because it doesn't take lot of time to spin up new machines. If there is unpredictability in the demand it is very useful. But it is a over kill if demand is consistent.

We use AWS auto scaling for scaling up our cloud virtual machines to handle the increase or decrease in workload. It really helps us to satisfy the demand because it doesn't take lot of time to spin up new machines. I gave the rating 10 because it really does help you to handle the sudden spike in number of requests.
