Autoscaling in AME

AME support node pool autoscaling by using the Kubernetes Autoscaler. You can enable this feature by setting the autoScaling flag to true when creating/updating a cluster node pool. See our guide to create a node pool for more information.

Autoscaler settings

AME supports custom cluster autoscaler settings. These are set on the cluster level. See our API docs for creating a cluster for more details.

You can configure the following options for the autoscaler:

• scale-down-utilization-threshold
• scale-down-gpu-utilization-threshold
• scale-down-delay-after-add
• scale-down-unneeded-time
• scale-down-unready-time
• max-node-provision-time
• unremovable-node-recheck-timeout

Details about these options can be found on the Kubernetes Autoscaler FAQ.
