     9  Strategy plugins compare the current state of the system against the desired state
    10  defined by the operator in the scaling policy and generate an action that will
    11  bring the system closer to the desired state. In practical terms, strategies
    12  receive the current value and a metric value for a resource and output what the
    13  new value should be.
