Elasticsearch on Kubernetes - Auto scale

Elastic Orchestration Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes (ECK)
1

Hi,

We are upgrading our Elasticsearch clusters to work on top of EKS and we want to use autoscaling.

We wonder if/when you'll support the autoscaling based on memory or CPU, and if there's a plan to dynamically add/remove replicas for overloaded shards/indices (in term of number of requests).

Thanks,
Itay

Hi,

ECK can already leverage the Elasticsearch autoscaling feature to adjust automatically the number of Pods and the allocated resources (see the documentation Elasticsearch autoscaling | Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes [2.5] | Elastic).

I'm not aware of a plan to dynamically add/remove replicas for overloaded shards/indices. Elastic Stack - Discuss the Elastic Stack would be the right place to ask.
