According to the Alibaba Cloud documentation1, Auto Scaling is a service that automatically adjusts the number of elastic computing resources based on your business demands and policies. When the demand for computing resources increases, Auto Scaling automatically adds ECS instances to ensure sufficient computing capabilities. When the demand decreases, Auto Scaling automatically removes ECS instances to reduce costs.

Auto Scaling supports adding an existing ECS instance into the scaling group, but the instance must meet some requirements1. One of the requirements is that the instance and the scaling group must be in the same region. However, they do not have to be in the same zone. A zone is a physical area within a region that has independent power grids and networks. A region is a geographic area where Alibaba Cloud deploys its resources. Therefore, the correct answer is B.

In Alibaba Cloud RDS, read-only instances are synchronized from the master instance but do not allow actions such as creating or deleting databases, configuring backup policies, or changing account authorizations. However, you can configure the read-only instance’s whitelist to control access.

Zones in the same region support low-latency intranet communication, ideal for high-availability deployments with inter-Zone fault isolation. Placement of ECS instances in the same or different Zones depends on the disaster recovery and latency needs of the application.
