Objective
Configure automatic scaling based on metrics to optimize resource usage.
Requirements
- Deploy metrics server
- Create HPA resource
- Configure scaling metrics
- Set min/max replicas
- Implement VPA
- Monitor scaling behavior
Tips
Don't use HPA and VPA together on same metric. Set appropriate cooldown periods. Use custom metrics for better scaling. Test scaling behavior under load.
Solution
