Kubernetes Autoscaling Containers


Is it possible to autoscale docker containers, which contain application servers (like wildfly/tomcat/jetty/) within Kubernetes? For example at CPU and RAM usage or based on http requests? If there is a built-in feature for that I can't find it, or is it possible to write something like a configuration script for this? If so where does the magic happen?


Solution

  • Autoscaling of containers is not yet supported and is not part of the near term 1.0 roadmap for Kubernetes (meaning that the core team isn't going to add it soon but external contributions are certainly welcome).
