# Configuring Auto-Scaling for Azure Files Access Nodes

Configuring auto-scaling for Azure Files includes creating a scaling configuration and assigning the server group to Azure Files instances.

For information about creating a scaling configuration, see Create a scaling configuration for Azure.

Multi-tenant environments

In multi-tenant environments:

- Service providers can offer auto-scaling with a scaling profile as a service.
- Tenants can either use their service providers' scaling profile configuration or configure their own scaling configuration.

## Assign the Server Group to Azure Files Instances

When configuring an Azure Files instance, select the scaling configuration's server group as the access node.

For Azure Files instance configuration, see Configuring Backups for Azure File Storage.
