Installing scaling members for Node.js servers
The Scaling Member for Node.js allows a Node.js collective member to be managed by a Liberty Scaling Controller server. The Scaling Controller directs the Scaling Member for Node.js to start and stop according to the scaling policy. The Scaling Member for Node.js is a plug-in module for the apiconnect-collective-member npm. The Scaling Member for Node.js plug-in provides the equivalent capability to the scalingMember-1.0 feature for Liberty for the Node.js collective member.
