Aurora Auto Scaling works with Amazon CloudWatch to continuously monitor performance metrics of your Aurora Replicas. You can create an Aurora Auto Scaling policy for any of your existing or new MySQL-compatible Aurora DB clusters. To get started, visit the AWS Management Console and create an Aurora Auto Scaling policy with just a few clicks. Alternatively, download the latest CLI or SDKs to create Aurora Auto Scaling policies programmatically. Refer our documentation for more information.

There is no additional cost to use Aurora Auto Scaling beyond what you already pay for Aurora and CloudWatch alarms.
