Support auto-scaling DOKS clusters #5

Closed timoreimann closed 5 years ago

timoreimann commented 5 years ago

Being able to auto-scale DOKS clusters/nodes seems beneficial to address users with rather dynamic work loads.

We should probably look into https://github.com/kubernetes/autoscaler for this purpose.

kubernetes/autoscaler#254 was recently reopened to track adding auto-scaling support for DOKS. @fatih is going to work on it.

timoreimann commented 5 years ago

The upstream effort to kubernetes/autoscaler has been merged. 🎉(Kudos, @fatih 👏 )

The next step is to integrate the work into the DOKS product. We yet need to flesh out the details on how that'd look like. Keep following this issue for updates as we move forward.

Any update about this?

timoreimann commented 5 years ago

Things are looking pretty good at this stage. There's a fair chance the next round of DOKS images is going to come with autoscaling support for certain Kubernetes releases.

Seems like DO announced autoscaling today?

@pablokbs that's right, autoscaling shipped today. 🌠 Thanks for sharing the link.

I think we're good to close this one. Any future extensions to the autoscaling support in DOKS should be filed as a new issue.
