Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for determining, by an instance manager and from a pattern associated with a system executing within a landscape, that a status of the system is to change to scaled-in, the pattern being absent any reference to instances of systems executed within landscapes, in response, identifying, by the instance manager and from a logic scaling set that is associated with the system, one or more instances of the system that are able to be scaled-in, selecting, by the instance manager, at least one instance of the one or more instances, and executing, by the instance manager, scaling of the system based on the at least one instance.
