Instance Pool with Autoscaling
Self-healing instance pool from an instance configuration with metric- or schedule-based autoscaling and LB attachment.
Verification
Plan-validatedPassed: module logic verified on a mocked plan - inputs, validation rules, conditional creation and outputs resolve (no real provider, no cloud).
Conformance
- Static validation (fmt · validate · tflint)
- Security scan clean (Checkov)
- Plan tests (mocked: validation rules · outputs)
Provenance
- SHA-256 checksum
- Cosign signature
Functional
- Live test pending (no cloud run yet)

Documentation
oci-instance-pool-autoscaling — Instance Pool with Autoscaling
A self-healing OCI instance pool built from an immutable instance
configuration, with optional metric-based (CPU/memory threshold) and
schedule-based (cron) autoscaling, and automatic load-balancer backend
registration. Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), OCI provider
>= 8.0, < 9.0.
Status: static-validated, live-test pending. Ships under live-test quarantine — validated with
tofu fmt,tofu validate, andtflint. Real apply → scale → destroy against an OCI tenancy is pending a cloud sandbox. Testable cheaply with micro shapes, so this is a strong early candidate once the live lane exists.
Secure / sane defaults
- No public IP by default. Pool instances sit in a private subnet behind a
load balancer;
assign_public_ip = false. Scope ingress to the LB withnsg_ids(deny-by-default). - Legacy IMDS (v1) disabled on every launched instance (OCI's IMDSv2 enforcement).
- Encryption at rest always on — bring your own Vault key via
boot_volume_kms_key_id; in-transit encryption on by default. - Deterministic template.
image_idis required — the pool launches from a pinned image so scale-outs are reproducible (no platform-image drift). - Bounded scaling.
capacity(min/initial/max) caps how far autoscaling can grow or shrink the pool; cool-down floors at 300s.
Requirements
- Terraform or OpenTofu
>= 1.6 oracle/oci>= 8.0, < 9.0
