Cloud Native Development on Azure with Java 5.3: Scale and Autoscale the Application

This video tutorial covers how to scale applications in Azure Kubernetes, both manually and automatically. It begins with an introduction to scaling, followed by detailed steps for manually scaling pods. The tutorial then explains the importance of auto scaling and provides a guide on configuring it in Kubernetes. Finally, it demonstrates testing the auto scaling setup to ensure it functions correctly.

What is the first step to manually scale pods in Azure Kubernetes?

• Set CPU utilization to 10%.

• Clone the metrics server repository.

• Execute the cube CTL get pods command.

• Open the Azure portal and navigate to resource groups.

How many replicas were created for the backend pod during manual scaling?

• 2 replicas

• 3 replicas

• 5 replicas

• 1 replica

What challenge does auto-scaling address in Kubernetes?

• Reducing the number of nodes in a cluster

• Handling unexpected spikes in web traffic

• Improving application security

• Simplifying the deployment process

Which command is used to clone the metrics server repository?

• cube CTL create

• cube CTL scale

• git clone

• cube CTL get pods

What is the default path for the metrics server deployment package?

• metrics-server/deploy/3.0+/

• metrics-server/deploy/1.8+/

• metrics-server/deploy/2.0+/

• metrics-server/deploy/1.5+/

What CPU utilization percentage was set for the test application during auto-scaling configuration?

• 50%

• 80%

• 10%

• 90%

How many replicas did the application scale up to during the auto-scaling test?

• 5 replicas

• 6 replicas

• 7 replicas

• 8 replicas
