Autoscaling Workers for Boundary

Secure remote access for your resources is great, but you don't need it all the time. Boundary connects you to your resources via worker nodes that may be idle for long periods. Can you set up auto-scaling to add workers when you need them and remove them when you don't? Yes, but with caveats. In this talk, I'll explore the scaling options for Boundary OSS and HCP and give a demo of how to implement worker auto-scaling in Azure using customized workers and virtual machine scale sets.
