Abstract

A method of adjusting a number of virtual machines in a data plane is provided. A number of virtual machines in the data plane each having a data plane proxy is provisioned. The virtual machines provide data routing for a first number of operational pods in a deployment plane associated with the data plane. A status of the deployment plane is monitored. The status reflects the deployment plane has a second number of operational pods different from the first number of operational pods. The first number of operational pods is compared to the second number of operational pods. Based on the comparison, the number of virtual machines in the data plane is adjusted.
