ServerArray

A server array represents a logical group of instances and allows to resize(grow/shrink) that group based on certain elasticity parameters.

A server array just like a server always has a next_instance association, which will define the configuration to apply when a new instance is launched. But unlike a server which has a current_instance relationship, the server array has a current_instances relationship that gives the information about all the running instances in the array. Changes to the next_instance association prepares the configuration for the next instance that is to be launched in the array and will therefore not affect any of the currently running instances.
