+## Scaling Metrics
+
+Setting this variable to a lis tof maps.  Each map defines a seperate scaling policy
+
+| Param | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| name | (Required) Must be unique |
+| metric | (Required) Name of the metric to use for scaling - see below for allowed values|
+| target_value | (Required) Value of the above metric that scaling will maintain |
+| disable_scale_in | (Optional) Whether scale in by the target tracking policy is disabled. If the value is true, scale in is disabled and the target tracking policy won't remove capacity from the scalable resource.|
+| scale_in_cooldown | (Optional) Amount of time, in seconds, after a scale in activity completes before another scale in activity can start |
+| scale_out_cooldown |  (Optional) Amount of time, in seconds, after a scale out activity completes before another scale out activity can start. |
+
+### Allowed Metrics
+* ECSServiceAverageCPUUtilization
+* ECSServiceAverageMemoryUtilization
+* ALBRequestCountPerTarget
+
+### Example
+```
+  scaling_metrics = [
+    {
+      name               = "cpu"
+      metric             = "ECSServiceAverageCPUUtilization"
+      target_value       = 10
+      disable_scale_in   = false
+      scale_in_cooldown  = 180
+      scale_out_cooldown = 90
+    },
+    {
+      name               = "memory"
+      metric             = "ECSServiceAverageMemoryUtilization"
+      target_value       = 10
+      disable_scale_in   = false
+      scale_in_cooldown  = 180
+      scale_out_cooldown = 90
+    }
+  ]
