Improving Kubernetes' Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) - Analysis and Proposed Enhancements

Explore a research-driven analysis of Kubernetes' Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) in this 29-minute conference talk from CNCF. Delve into a control theory-based model that identifies potential improvements in HPA's convergence time while maintaining effective resource utilization stabilization. Discover a proposed framework focusing on efficient information distribution from primary microservices to peripheral counterparts, aimed at enhancing HPA's responsiveness to fluctuating demands and potentially accelerating resource allocation adjustments.
