​5:35 PM to 6:05 PM: Predictive Autoscaling using Keda and Facebook Prophet 💭
Autoscaling pods in Kubernetes is slow. HPA wasn't really built to react to sudden spikes in load. These bursts of traffic results in a drop in application performance and subsequently a drop in end user experience. We don't want that. What if we could proactively scale our pods in anticipation of load? Let's find out!

​6:05 to 6:35 PM: Beyond dashboarding: the Grafana Observability Stack. 👀
Most people know Grafana for its visualization and dashboarding capabilities. Since its beginnings, it has grown to become the de-facto standard open source visualization for cloud-native observability. But there's more to the Grafana ecosystem: an entire MLT (metrics-logs-traces) observability stack now expanding beyond the three pillars.
This topic is going to be presented to you by
