Nowadays, the popularity of event-driven applications is rising, they enable us to design and develop scalable, distributed, and flexible systems. Kubernetes platform brings the distributed and flexible aspect, though it doesn't provide any built-in way to deal with event-driven scaling properly. Scaling based on CPU and/or memory usage doesn’t fit well with event-driven processes. The majority of autoscaling solutions are usually complex, and their scopes are too attached to a specific provider. KEDA came to solve these problems, providing a simple way to gather the metrics from external sources and translate them into Kubernetes metrics to drive the event-driven autoscaling. During this session, we will introduce KEDA: what it is, how it works, show it in action, and discuss future development.
