ExpressRoute Scalable Gateway (ErGwScale) is our next-generation offering that brings flexibility, performance, and operational simplicity to Virtual Network Gateway deployments. With this release, you can dynamically scale gateway infrastructure to meet real-time traffic demands. **What’s new** * **Dynamic scaling:** Deploy ErGwScale to achieve up to **40 Gbps of connectivity** for virtual machines and private endpoints within your virtual network. * **Auto scaling:** Configure minimum and maximum scale units, and Azure automatically adjusts capacity based on bandwidth and flow demand—delivering efficiency and eliminating manual tuning. * **Fixed scale option:** For predictable workloads, set a steady scale to maintain consistent bandwidth for stable traffic patterns. * **FastPath + gateway coexistence:** ErGwScale complements FastPath for scenarios where FastPath isn’t supported—such as high-bandwidth or complex routing cases—ensuring seamless performance. This offering introduces elastic scaling, zero-downtime upgrades, and enterprise-grade reliability, making it ideal for hybrid connectivity and demanding workloads.
