StormForge Case Study: Optimizing K8s Autoscaling for Growth and Cost-Efficiency

The SaaS company in this case study had been scaling to accommodate business growth but soon found itself vastly over-provisioning Kubernetes resources and facing 40% annual growth in cloud spend, which was cutting into its margins. The firm adopted Kubernetes horizontal pod autoscaling (HPA), but found it challenging to scale workloads that were prone to […]


Kubernetes Autoscaling without Compromise: A Bi-Dimensional Approach from StormForge that Works

Predictable, optimized scaling is a challenge that requires trade-offs in Kubernetes environments today. The Kubernetes autoscalers enable horizontal and vertical autoscaling, but it’s not easy for them to work together. This leads the vast majority of organizations to use Horizontal Pod Autoscaler only, with arbitrary CPU values determining the scale point. And for the VPA […]


Rightsizing Kubernetes Apps and Optimizing Resources at Any Scale with StormForge ML

Cloud waste and operational inefficiency are significant Kubernetes problems that span pre-production, day 2 operations and beyond. The chronic inability to rightsize application resources in complex Kubernetes environments leads to excessive – yet ineffective – manual tuning, gross over-provisioning and unpredictable performance. These outcomes steal time from engineering innovation, generate unnecessarily high cloud costs and […]
