A bastion host has a defined number of *instances*, which are also sometimes called *scale units*. The Standard SKU supports *host scaling*, where you configure the number of instances, with a minimum of two instances. Adding more instances helps to accommodate additional concurrent client connections. The Basic SKU supports exactly two instances.
