How can I scale my services using Docker Compose?

You can scale your services in Docker Compose by using the scale option in your docker-compose.yml file.

Can you give me an example of how to do that?

Sure! In your docker-compose.yml, you can specify the number of replicas like this:

version: '3'
services:
  web:
    image: my-web-app
    deploy:
      replicas: 3

What if I want to scale a service dynamically?

For dynamic scaling, you can use Docker Swarm or Kubernetes, which allow you to adjust the number of replicas on the fly.

Are there any limitations I should be aware of?

Yes, scaling is limited by your host's resources, such as CPU and memory. Make sure your infrastructure can handle the load.
