Mastering Kubernetes Resiliency and Costs with Dynatrace

Explore a comprehensive webinar on optimizing Kubernetes resiliency and costs using Dynatrace. Gain insights from Henrik Rexed, Cloud Native Advocate, as he demonstrates measuring cloud costs for K8s clusters, understanding non-optimized resource allocation impacts, and leveraging the latest Dynatrace features for Kubernetes. Learn to implement Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) with Dynatrace metrics, observe and monitor K8s workloads effectively, and identify auto-scaling side effects. Through live demos and practical examples, master techniques for resizing workloads, utilizing Dynatrace's out-of-the-box K8s alerting, and implementing advanced scaling strategies with Keptn Metrics Server. Discover essential takeaways for running scalable, resilient Kubernetes workloads while maintaining cost efficiency in this informative session.
