Overview
Horizontal pod autoscaling is the automatic increase or decrease the number of pod replicas managed by a higher level controller that supports scaling (deployments, replica sets, stateful sets).. The scaling is performed by a horizontal controller and it is controlled by a horizontal pod autoscaler Kubernetes API resource. For an horizontal pod autoscaler to work correctly, a source of metrics, in particular resource metrics, must be deployed. The simplest source of resource metrics is the metrics server.
