CPU Usage Spikes

Our site/app on known dates and times has massive short term (couple hours) spikes in traffic that maxes out our 48 CPU usage. I need to increase that to handle the spikes but need it to almost be automated or at least scheduled to automatically increase on those known dates and times.

Is that possible?

@dirtdraftclint One way you can do this is to create scripts using API calls to the Linode API. That being said there are some caveats that you should be aware of. The following post goes over a few of those in the replies.

Is it possible to schedule a resize of a Linode or image?
