Introducing KubeElasti: Scale-to-zero made native

Submitted Oct 15, 2025

Session type: Talk (30 mins)

Description

Modern Kubernetes platforms waste up to 80% of resources on idle services, and most scale-to-zero tools force code changes or risk reliability by being in the hot path.

This session demonstrates KubeElasti’s first-principles approach to scale-to-zero, intercepting and queueing requests only when needed — never introducing latency during normal operation. Unlike solutions that demand architectural refactoring, KubeElasti integrates natively with Kubernetes — no code changes required.

Benefits to attendees

Attendees will see live demo, learn how to enable cost-efficient scaling, and explore deployment best practices that routinely deliver significant infrastructure savings. Perfect for platform engineers, SREs, and architects seeking cost optimization without compromising reliability or requiring application refactoring.
