How to Mock Auto Scaling Policy Scale Out in Python
Define a mock auto-scaling function that scales out capacity by a factor up to a max, simulating AWS-like events.
def mock_scale_out(current_capacity: int, max_capacity: int, scale_factor: int = 1) -> tuple:
"""
Mock auto-scaling policy: scales out by the specified factor
if capacity allows, capped at max_capacity.
"""
if current_capacity >= max_capacity:
return current_capacity, False
