This article explains why using simple queue-length/publish-rate metrics for autoscaling jobs in Kubernetes Event‑Driven Autoscaling and RabbitMQ setups often fails.
It also shows why you should focus on time to consume instead of raw message counts.
Mathew Duggan
This article speculates what Kubernetes 2.0 could look like by proposing a move from YAML to HCL, building in package management and revisiting core abstractions, aiming for fewer landmines and more developer ergonomics.
