Sign up at https://equinixmetal.com---Kubernetes (commonly stylized as k8s) is an open-source container-orchestration system for automating computer application deployment, scaling, and management.It was originally designed by Google and is now maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. It aims to provide a "platform for automating deployment, scaling, and operations of application containers across clusters of hosts". It works with a range of container tools, including Docker.Many cloud services offer a Kubernetes-based platform or infrastructure as a service (PaaS or IaaS) on which Kubernetes can be deployed as a platform-providing service. Many vendors also provide their own branded Kubernetes distributions.Autoscaling Special Interest GroupCovers development and maintenance of components for automated scaling in Kubernetes. This includes automated vertical and horizontal pod autoscaling, initial resource estimation, cluster-proportional system component autoscaling, and autoscaling of Kubernetes clusters themselves.š° Timeline00:00 - Holding screen00:40 - Introductions03:20 - About Kubernetes autoscaling09:40 - Different types of auto-scaling on Kubernetes11:50 - Autoscaling with resource metrics33:00 - Autoscaling with custom metrics57:00 - Autoscaling with external metrics1:17:45 - Vertical pod autoscalingš ResourcesGuy Templeton - https://twitter.com/GJTempletonTutorial - https://github.com/gjtempleton/k8s-autoscaling-by-exampleSIG Autoscaling - https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-autoscaling
