📋 Project Overview

This project demonstrates my expertise in implementing dynamic autoscaling solutions in Kubernetes using the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA). Through hands-on implementation, I"ve created a robust system that automatically adjusts application resources based on demand, showcasing modern cloud-native architecture principles and DevOps best practices.

🎯 Key Objectives

  • Implement production-grade autoscaling using Kubernetes HPA
  • Master resource management with precise CPU and memory configurations
  • Deploy scalable NGINX workloads with optimal performance
  • Configure advanced metrics-based scaling policies
  • Demonstrate deep understanding of Kubernetes orchestration

🏗️ Project Architecture

The project implements a sophisticated autoscaling architecture that dynamically manages application resources:
