Scale
ClusterControl’s point-and-click interface lets you flexibly scale your cluster via node actions, load balancers, and containers in any environment. Whether for resilience or scaling out for read-only alternatives, ClusterControl offers you everything you need for all your favorite databases.
Learn how to increase and decrease database resources and extend into the cloud as your application needs evolve.
Right-size your cluster
Shape your cluster to your evolving needs by adding and removing nodes at will.
Deploy load balancers
Deploy and scale load balancers such as HAProxy, ProxySQL, and MaxScale.
Add worker nodes
Bring high availability to the controller level to ensure service continuity.
Full-lifecycle operations for the most advanced databases
Import active clusters into ClusterControl or deploy new ones from scratch anywhere.
See for yourself, demo scaling live!
Include HA at the CMON Controller level
CMON Controller Pools bring HA to the actual automation node level, enabling you to add and remove controllers to match your capacity needs and ensure service continuity. Clusters are dynamically and transactionally assigned, ensuring no cluster is orphaned; and, CC redistributes clusters as you scale your controller pool.

I don’t know what scalability my environment might need for now. Can I scale out when I need it with ClusterControl?
Add nodes as you see fit to whichever environment demands it. The database technology deployed and environment size will determine how fast that task takes.
Can I scale out and then scale back down again in an elastic fashion like DBaaS and cloud providers?
This mainly depends on the database vendor, but ClusterControl lets you add nodes and remove nodes accordingly, so you don’t have to read manuals and contemplate the details required.
Does scaling mean taking copies from the primary cluster or node, or can I do it from backups? Can I make changes while adding new nodes?
You’ll be offered a choice when adding a new node about how you want to provision the node, and one of those will be to choose from the list of backups available so you don’t impact the online activity on the other nodes.
