• github.com/kubernetes: Kubernetes Cluster Autoscaler
• Kubernetes Autoscaling in Production: Best Practices for Cluster Autoscaler, HPA and VPA In this article we will take a deep dive into Kubernetes autoscaling tools including the cluster autoscaler, the horizontal pod autoscaler and the vertical pod autoscaler. We will also identify best practices that developers, DevOps and Kubernetes administrators should follow when configuring these tools.

• Kubernetes autoscaling with Istio metrics 🌟 Scaling based on traffic is not something new to Kubernetes, an ingress controllers such as NGINX can expose Prometheus metrics for HPA. The difference in using Istio is that you can autoscale backend services as well, apps that are accessible only from inside the mesh.
