 ** autoScalingConfiguration **   <a name="computeoptimizer-Type-ServiceConfiguration-autoScalingConfiguration"></a>
 Describes the Auto Scaling configuration methods for an Amazon ECS service. This affects the generated recommendations. For example, if Auto Scaling is configured on a service’s CPU, then Compute Optimizer doesn’t generate CPU size recommendations.   
The Auto Scaling configuration methods include:  
+  `TARGET_TRACKING_SCALING_CPU` — If the Amazon ECS service is configured to use target scaling on CPU, Compute Optimizer doesn't generate CPU recommendations.
+  `TARGET_TRACKING_SCALING_MEMORY` — If the Amazon ECS service is configured to use target scaling on memory, Compute Optimizer doesn't generate memory recommendations.
For more information about step scaling and target scaling, see [ Step scaling policies for Application Auto Scaling](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/application/userguide/application-auto-scaling-step-scaling-policies.html) and [ Target tracking scaling policies for Application Auto Scaling](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/autoscaling/application/userguide/application-auto-scaling-target-tracking.html) in the *Application Auto Scaling User Guide*.
