Cloud computing is a automated on-demand self-service paradigm, allowing a pay-per-use model on shared resources. Scalability is one of the challenges faced by cloud computing to be achieved at full strength. The "cloud scalability" is slowly gaining weight in cloud industry since the load of traffic is usually unpredictable. Load balancers are appointed to monitor the traffic and scale accordingly. This paper will give the types of scalability, choosing the correct scalability and other issues.
