+
+## Details
+
+Scaling up a Kubernetes cluster means adding nodes; likewise, scaling down occurs by removing nodes. These nodes can be either control plane or worker nodes. Oracle recommends against scaling the cluster up and down simultaneously but instead performing a scale up and down in two separate commands.
+
+Scaling the Kubernetes cluster control plane or worker nodes in odd numbers is recommended to avoid split-brain scenarios and maintain the quorum. For example, 3, 5, or 7 control plane nodes or worker nodes ensure the cluster's reliability.
+
+### Objectives
+
+In this tutorial, you'll learn how to use `kubectl scale` and `kubectl edit` to:
+
+- Add a new control plane and worker nodes to a Kubernetes cluster
+- Remove control plane nodes and worker nodes from a Kubernetes cluster
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Minimum of one Oracle Linux instance
+  - Runs `ocne` and `libvirt` ephemeral cluster
+
+- OCI cluster creation requires access to the following resources in an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure tenancy:
+
+  - Virtual cloud network with four subnets
+  - Network load balancer
+  - Object Storage bucket with minimum 5 GiB available
+  - Compute Custom Image
+  - Compute Arm Shape for the control plane node
+    - VM.Standard.A1.Flex with two OCPU and 12 memory
+  - Compute for each additional control plane and worker node
+    - VM.Standard.E4.Flex with four OCPU and 64 memory
