Event-driven vs. Resource-based Autoscaling

Join us for a practical, hands-on session where we dig into the real-world challenges of Kubernetes autoscaling—and how to solve them with event-driven scaling and intelligent optimization.

Led by Zbyněk Roubalík (Founder and CTO of Kedify, KEDA Founding Maintainer), this live session will showcase a full-stack scaling scenario: from activating HTTP-based autoscaling with KEDA to right-sizing misconfigured workloads with PerfectScale.

Expect honest insights, live demos, and zero fluff. Whether you’re running multi-cluster workloads, facing scaling bottlenecks, or just tired of overpaying for underperforming infrastructure, you’ll leave with playbooks you can use immediately.
‍

What We’ll Cover:

Live demo: enabling KEDA-based event-driven scaling in a sandbox cluster
Where event-based scaling hits limits (and how PerfectScale fills the gap)
How to detect and fix misprovisioned workloads using historical and real-time data
Before/after performance snapshots of optimized vs. unoptimized clusters
Tips for reducing scaling toil and increasing visibility across environments

Who Should View:

DevOps and SRE teams supporting dynamic or multi-cloud workloads
Infra and platform leads looking to automate and right-size container resources
Anyone scaling HTTP, queue-based, or scheduled jobs in Kubernetes
