The prime use case is to spin up extra working servers that can help you process the workload on queues. You can think of this as a sort of PHP based version of Kubernetes that has 5% of its features, but covers that 80% use case. For most PHP and Laravel developers, this package will also be easier to learn and use. Typically, on your hosting provider, you would prepare a server snapshot, that will be used as a template when starting new servers. After the package is configured, spinning up an extra servers is as easy as: ``` // typically, in a service provider use Laravel\Horizon\WaitTimeCalculator; use Spatie\DynamicServers\Facades\DynamicServers; use Spatie\DynamicServers\Support\DynamicServersManager; /* * The package will call the closure passed * to `determineServerCount` every minute */ DynamicServers::determineServerCount(function(DynamicServersManager $servers) { /* * First, we'll calculate the number of servers needed. * * In this example, we will take a look at Horizon's * reported waiting time. Of course, in your project you can * calculate the number of servers needed however you want. */ $waitTimeInMinutes = app(WaitTimeCalculator::class)->calculate('default'); $numberOfServersNeeded = round($waitTimeInMinutes / 10); /* * Next, we will pass the number of servers needed to the `ensure` method. * * If there currently are less that that number of servers available, * the package will start new ones. * * If there are currently more than that number of servers running, * the package will stop a few servers. */ $servers->ensure($numberOfServersNeeded); }); ``` Out of the box, the package supports [UpCloud](https://upcloud.com). You can create [your own server provider](https://spatie.be/docs/laravel-dynamic-servers/v1/advanced-usage/creating-your-own-server-provider)to add support for your favourite hosting service.
