Scaling Smarter in K8s: A Deep Dive into Event-Driven and Resource-Based Strategies

Date : June 24
Time : 12:00 pm EST

In the ever-evolving world of Kubernetes, autoscaling isn’t just a performance consideration—it’s a critical strategy for resource optimization, cost control, and ensuring reliability across dynamic workloads.

If you’re navigating the complexities of right-sizing containerized applications, balancing cost-efficiency with performance, or wondering how to bring intelligence to your scaling policies, this session is for you.

🔍 What’s the Big Idea?

Kubernetes offers native autoscaling, but traditional resource-based approaches can fall short—especially when workloads are dynamic, spiky, or event-driven. This session explores how to supercharge your Kubernetes scaling strategies by combining event-driven scaling with KEDA and intelligent optimization from PerfectScale.

You’ll walk away with real-world scaling playbooks, practical insights, and tools that can be applied immediately—no fluff, no filler.

What to Expect

Led by Zbyněk Roubalík, Founder & CTO of Kedify and founding maintainer of KEDA, and Anton Weiss, Chief Cluster Whisperer at PerfectScale, this session takes you beyond theory. You’ll explore a hands-on, full-stack autoscaling scenario that addresses:

Live Demo – See KEDA in action as it enables HTTP-based event-driven autoscaling in a sandbox cluster via Killer Coda.
Understand the Limits – Discover where event-based scaling ends—and how PerfectScale bridges the gap with historical and real-time analysis.
Fix Misconfigured Workloads – Learn how to detect, right-size, and optimize workloads using actual data instead of guesswork.
Before/After Snapshots – Compare performance and efficiency gains from optimized vs. unoptimized clusters.
Battle-Tested Tips – Practical takeaways to reduce scaling toil, increase automation, and boost visibility.

Who Should Attend?

  • DevOps & SRE Teams managing multi-cluster or multi-cloud environments
  • Platform & Infra Engineers seeking better automation and scaling intelligence
  • Kubernetes Users dealing with HTTP, queue-based, or cron job workloads
  • Anyone interested in cost-saving, performance-boosting Kubernetes strategies

Whether you’re just starting with autoscaling or you’ve hit limits with HPA, this session delivers value-packed guidance straight from the experts who helped build the tools.
