Vertical autoscaling with application volume

I am wondering, does vertical autoscaling work well with applications that have a volume, without any downtime ? Because I guess Railway uses big VMs to put all the apps in, if a VM is full, an app could not be scaled up without been rescheduled on another node, and then having downtime because of the volume ? (because only 1 replica)
Solution:
Vertical scaling has no down time, even with volumes

Great ! I'm still curious about how Railway manages to do it without overprovisionning all VMs too much

neither me nor fragly have any information regarding how that exactly works under the hood, as we don't work for railway
