HPA Settler

Pre-performance-testing baseline calculator for resource requests/limits and HPA settings

Performance testing is always recommended before moving any recommendation to production. These numbers are a starting point for testing, not a production-ready setting.

Resource sizing

Current CPU request

Current CPU limit

Current memory request

Current memory limit

Avg idle CPU usage (optional)

Avg idle memory usage (optional)

Margin, idle to request (%)

CPU limit ratio (request to limit)

Memory limit ratio (request to limit)

HPA scaling

Deployment name

Current replica count

Current avg CPU utilization (%)

Current avg memory utilization (%)

I know my target utilization % I know my desired baseline replicas
