EcoScale Information

Kubernetes Cost Optimization Right-sizing Resources: Analyze actual usage to adjust pod requests and limits, preventing over-provisioning. Autoscaling: Utilize Karpenter to adjust node counts and Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA) to scale pods based on demand. Spot Instances: Use interruptible spot instances for fault-tolerant, stateless, or batch workloads to save up to 90% over on-demand prices. Resource Cleanup: Identify and delete orphaned Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs), unused load balancers, and idle containers. Namespace Quotas: Implement resource quotas and limits per namespace to prevent runaway resource consumption by specific teams. Bin Packing: Use tools or scheduling strategies to maximize node utilization, filling nodes before spinning up new ones.
