Integrations with Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaling (KEDA) on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) (Preview)

The Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaling (KEDA) add-on integrates with features provided by Azure and open source projects.

[!INCLUDE preview features callout]

Important

Integrations with open source projects are not covered by the AKS support policy.

Observe your autoscaling with Kubernetes events

KEDA automatically emits Kubernetes events allowing customers to operate their application autoscaling.

To learn about the available metrics, we recommend reading the KEDA documentation.

Scalers for Azure services

KEDA can integrate with various tools and services through a rich catalog of 50+ KEDA scalers. It supports leading cloud platforms (such as Azure) and open-source technologies such as Redis and Kafka.

It leverages the following scalers for Azure services:

• Azure Application Insights
• Azure Blob Storage
• Azure Data Explorer
• Azure Event Hubs
• Azure Log Analytics
• Azure Monitor
• Azure Pipelines
• Azure Service Bus
• Azure Storage Queue

Next to the built-in scalers, you can install external scalers yourself to autoscale on other Azure services:

• Azure Cosmos DB (Change feed)

However, these external scalers aren't supported as part of the add-on and rely on community support.

Next steps

• Enable the KEDA add-on with an ARM template
• Autoscale a .NET Core worker processing Azure Service Bus Queue message
