scaling agile means??

To some people, “scaling agile” means going from a few agile teams to multiple, or even hundreds of, agile development teams. There are some unique challenges that come up whenever you have an organization where more than 3 or 4 agile teams need to work together in a coordinated fashion. Most agile scaling frameworks try to offer ideas or techniques that can help in organizations with anywhere from 4 to hundreds of Agile teams that need to work together. Other definitions of scaling may be to spread agile beyond IT, seeking agility in business operations or other areas of the organization. This need is not addressed as effectively by many popular approaches. source - http://www.infoq.com/news/2014/07/compare-agile-scaling  

In simple terms agile is about behaviours and techniques.

Behaviours would cover such things as empowerment, collaboration and good communication.  Techniques would cover areas such as having a clear processes with defined roles and responsibilities, along with practices such as timeboxing, iterative and incremental delivery and flexing the requirements.
