Adding Event-driven Autoscaling to your Kubernetes Cluster

Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) comes with a Cluster Autoscaler (CA) that can automatically add nodes to the node pool based on the load of the cluster (based on CPU/memory usage).

CA and KEDA therefore go hand-in-hand when managing dynamic workloads on an AKS cluster since they scale on different dimensions, based on different rules, as shown below: Overv »
