Right-Sizing Workflow

​

Overview

The right-sizing workflow creates issues when services are over-provisioned or under-provisioned, or when limits are misconfigured. For each service, the workflow compares actual usage to predefined efficiency parameters and generates issues accordingly.

​

Parameters

The right-sizing workflow comes with default parameters that can be customized through the workflow UI.

{
"maxCPULimitPercent": 90,
"minCPULimitPercent": 60,
"maxCPURequestPercent": 140,
"minCPURequestPercent": 61,
"maxMemoryLimitPercent": 90,
"minMemoryLimitPercent": 60,
"maxMemoryRequestPercent": 140,
"minMemoryRequestPercent": 60,
"minNumberOfCoreSavingsToCreateIssue": 0.1,
"minNumberOfBytesSavingsToCreateIssue": 1073741824
}

​

Issue Types

The workflow can generate several types of issues:

1. cpu_request_too_high:

   • Low severity
   • Indicates resource waste
   • Includes potential cost savings estimates

2. cpu_request_too_low:

   • Medium severity
   • Risk of performance impact
   • May indicate CPU throttling or memory pressure

3. cpu_limit_too_low:

   • Medium severity
   • Risk of performance impact
   • May indicate CPU throttling

4. memory_request_too_high:

   • Low severity
   • Indicates resource waste
   • Includes potential cost savings estimates

5. memory_request_too_low:

   • Medium severity
   • Risk of performance impact
   • May indicate memory pressure

6. memory_limit_too_low:

   • Medium severity
   • Risk of performance impact
   • May indicate memory pressure
