[Scalability] Enable Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) for Alcor deployment

Open kevin-zhonghao opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

  1. Configure cluster and network configuration to meet the requirements on using Metrics Server:

    • Metrics Server must be reachable from kube-apiserver by container IP address (or node IP if hostNetwork is enabled).
    • The kube-apiserver must enable an aggregation layer.
    • Nodes must have Webhook authentication and authorization enabled.
    • Kubelet certificate needs to be signed by cluster Certificate Authority (or disable certificate validation by passing --kubelet-insecure-tls to Metrics Server)
    • Container runtime must implement a container metrics RPCs (or have cAdvisor support)

  2. Deploy Metrics-Server in cluster.

  3. Deploy Horizontal Pod Autoscaler for each deployment with customized hpa yaml.

Some preliminary test in the Medina cluster appears to be quite promising.

The current 0.19 release already contains a lot of new features therefore we decided to move this feature to 12/30 release.
