Hi, The LBaaS is a normal load balancer (HA-proxy) that can balance the traffic between X nodes. It dont do any autoscaling on the instances when someone gets overloaded. There is the documentation on LBaaS: http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/lbaas_ext.html Take a look to clarify the concepts and the objects involved on the LBaaS. Best regards.
