Red Hat OpenShift autoscaling using MachineSet autoscaler with KEDA
The demonstration compares OpenShift MachineSet Autoscaler with KEDA against the previously used Cluster Autoscaler, using metrics to scale a MachineSet before pods remain pending. After installing Red Hat’s Custom Metrics Autoscaler operator (KEDA 2.19), granting permissions for MachineSet scaling and Thanos/Prometheus access, it creates a ScaledObject with a Prometheus trigger targeting demo-p4p95-worker-eastus3. Because a MachineSet has no pods, the HPA path cannot use metricType: Value, so AverageValue is paired with a PromQL query that multiplies CPU request utilization by the current node count. With nine one-CPU test pods, the MachineSet scaled from one to two to three nodes as the metric crossed 75%, and all pods reached Running; two additional Standard_D4s_v3 VMs were provisioned in zone 3.
