This guide will give an overview on how KubeDB Autoscaler operator autoscales the database compute resources i.e. cpu and memory using mariadbautoscaler
crd.
KubeDB
concepts:
The following diagram shows how KubeDB Autoscaler operator autoscales the resources of MariaDB
database components. Open the image in a new tab to see the enlarged version.
The Auto Scaling process consists of the following steps:
At first, the user creates a MariaDB
Custom Resource Object (CRO).
KubeDB
Community operator watches the MariaDB
CRO.
When the operator finds a MariaDB
CRO, it creates required number of StatefulSets
and related necessary stuff like secrets, services, etc.
Then, in order to set up autoscaling of the CPU & Memory resources of the MariaDB
database the user creates a MariaDBAutoscaler
CRO with desired configuration.
KubeDB
Autoscaler operator watches the MariaDBAutoscaler
CRO.
KubeDB
Autoscaler operator utilizes the modified version of Kubernetes official VPA-Recommender for different components of the database, as specified in the mariadbautoscaler
CRO.
It generates recommendations based on resource usages, & store them in the status
section of the autoscaler CRO.
If the generated recommendation doesn’t match the current resources of the database, then KubeDB
Autoscaler operator creates a MariaDBOpsRequest
CRO to scale the database to match the recommendation provided by the VPA object.
KubeDB Ops-Manager operator
watches the MariaDBOpsRequest
CRO.
Lastly, the KubeDB Ops-Manager operator
will scale the database component vertically as specified on the MariaDBOpsRequest
CRO.
In the next docs, we are going to show a step by step guide on Autoscaling of MariaDB database using MariaDBAutoscaler
CRD.
