Fun fact: Automation Anywhere licensed this technology from UiPath sometime in 2009. Traces of it could still be found in Automation
Anywhere 10. It’s important to mention that they have not updated this library since 2011.

RPA Autoscaling Customer Story
Challenge
Solution
Expected Outcomes
▪ Deadline events cause 500-1000%
workload demand increases on a daily cycle
▪ Tax busy seasons, specifically tax end
requests, caused spikes in RPA Jobs
(dynamic workload)
▪ Very inefficient while done manually:
increased costs with IT Infrastructure and
administration
▪ Scaling needs increase from 10 machines
to 300 machines dynamically, each with
10-20 high density robots (avg 1500 robots
during the day and 150 robots at night)
running 24 / 7
▪ Incurred high maintenance costs, high
administration costs to accommodate
dynamic workload in real-time
▪ Higher Risk from missed SLAs - client
potential liability for millions of dollars
towards customers and legal commitments
UiPath provided an autoscaling solution that ..
▪ Responds in real-time to dynamic workloads by allocating / deallocating
robot machines to meet the incoming RPA Jobs requests
▪ Works with all types of infrastructures (cloud, on-premises, hybrid)
▪ Empowers the client to easily and on the fly adjust the autoscaling
strategy to balance Cost Savings vs Highly-Available Job Execution
Optimized RPA & Business Operations
reduced costs with IT Infrastructure & labor
Flexible deployment
support for custom RPA setup
(high density robots, environments,
Azure cloud + VMware on-premises)
Green Computing
energy savings with compute from
running a more efficient RPA operation
SLAs risk management
help meet customer & contractual SLAs
in a highly regulated tax environment
Anticipated Savings
average expected reduction in
annual infrastructure costs
average expected reduction in
annual labor costs
average expected overall
reduction in total costs

Business Problem. Client is a leading Tax provider that faces dynamic workload related to customer
workload during busy tax seasons. This resulted in excess spending on infrastructure and personnel.
