Hello samabc,
Thanks for the feedback.
In the context of App Service plans, though, scaling up to a higher tier (e.g., from F1 to S1) is the required action to enable deployment slots. So while “upgrade” might feel more intuitive to some users, “scale up” is the precise Azure term used in the documentation for this kind of tier change.
“Scale up: Get more CPU, memory, or disk space, or extra features like dedicated virtual machines (VMs), custom domains and certificates, staging slots, or autoscaling. You scale up by changing the pricing tier of the App Service plan that your app belongs to.”
