An Array is a single server type used for horizontal scaling. It may be a single worker slave task plugged into our Grid system to scale based on the number of jobs in a queue. Or it may be your Deployment's application server that you want to scale dynamically based on the load or even schedule to scale based on known traffic patterns. Defining an array is simple. Select the type of server you would like to scale and then define what deployment you're scaling and how you would like RightScale to automate the process for you.
