 RDS allows users to create multiple databases in one RDS instance, as long as the total storage capacity and performance of the instance are not exceeded. This can help users save costs and simplify management. Users can create, delete, and manage databases in the RDS console or by using SQL commands. However, databases with the same name are not allowed in the same instance, and resources are shared among the databases in the same RDS instance, such as CPU, memory, disk, and network bandwidth. References: Operate and Manage a Relational Database on the Cloud, Alibaba RDS Course | Cloud Academy, ACA Cloud Computing Certification - Alibaba Cloud Academy

You can upgrade or downgrade an ECS instance’s configuration to meet your business needs. Upgrading an instance’s configuration means increasing the vCPUs, memory, bandwidth, or disk capacity of the instance. Downgrading an instance’s configuration means decreasing the vCPUs, memory, bandwidth, or disk capacity of the instance. You can change the configuration of an ECS instance by using one of the following methods1:

• Change the instance type: You can change the instance type of an ECS instance to adjust the vCPUs and memory of the instance. You can change the instance type of an ECS instance in the following scenarios2:
• Change the bandwidth configuration: You can change the bandwidth configuration of an ECS instance to adjust the network performance of the instance. You can change the bandwidth configuration of an ECS instance in the following scenarios3:
• Change the system disk or data disk: You can change the system disk or data disk of an ECS instance to adjust the disk capacity or performance of the instance. You can change the system disk or data disk of an ECS instance in the following scenarios4:

Alibaba Cloud Auto Scaling service allows you to automatically adjust the number of ECS instances in a scaling group based on your business needs and scaling policies. You can set the minimum and maximum number of instances in a scaling group to limit the range of scaling actions1. When you create a scaling rule, you can specify the number of instances to be added or removed, or the expected number of instances after the scaling action2. You can also create a scheduled task to execute a scaling rule at a specified time or periodically3.

In this question, the customer sets the minimum number of instances to 6 and the maximum number of instances to 8 in the scaling group. This means that the scaling group will always have at least 6 instances and at most 8 instances. The customer also adds a scaling rule to remove 5 instances, and creates a scheduled task based on this rule. However, this scaling rule will not be executed if it violates the minimum and maximum limits of the scaling group. Therefore, when the scheduled task is activated once, the scaling group will only remove 2 instances, which is the difference between the current number of instances (8) and the minimum number of instances (6). The remaining number of instances in the scaling group will be 6, which is the correct answer. References: 1: Create a scaling group - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center2: Create a scaling rule - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center3: Create a scheduled task - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center.
