Setting appropriate resource requirements in Pods is one of the most critical tasks of a developer deploying in Kubernetes.

Vertical Pod Autoscaling is a system that measures Pod utilization and attempts to set the right resource requests. For example, if the Pod is constantly using more CPU, VPA will increase the CPU requests. Contrasting Horizontal Pod Autoscaling (HPA) which can create more replicas as your Pods use more resources, VPA changes the resources of… Continue reading Scaling container resources automatically with VPA
