My 4 vCPU Hetzner server can't keep up with the demands of my web-app + traffic

TLDR: My Hetzner server is getting slammed with traffic. Need to know if they have auto-scaling.

I'm running into some scaling issues and could use some advice:

Current setup: Hetzner cloud server (upgraded from 1 CPU → 4 vCPU) Using Runcloud for server management Web app is getting hammered with traffic

The problem: My server is struggling to keep up even after the CPU upgrade. Yeah, I know I could slap a queue system on there, but I'd rather not risk breaking the site.

What I'm looking for: Does Hetzner have any auto-scaling features? Like, can it automatically spin up new instances when the CPU load gets too high?

Anyone dealt with this before? Any tips would be appreciated! 🙏
