[collector] Add support for VPA autoscaling #756

Open zehenrique opened 1 year ago

zehenrique commented 1 year ago

I would like to purpose VerticalPodAutoscaler support to the OpenTelemetry Collector helm chart.

Use cases:

Would be more than happy to contribute and open a PR if the team thinks this is a useful feature.

Question: How would it work with https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-collector/blob/main/processor/memorylimiterprocessor/README.md ? I.e. Collector should start droping the data if it's close to its memory limit, so in theory it shouldnt go above the limit?

Would be cool to have this if it works well with that
