Recommendations

Working with and understanding StormForge recommendations

A StormForge recommendation represents a point-in-time determination about what the optimal resource settings for a workload are. A recommendations may include:

  • Request settings for CPU and/or memory
  • Limit settings for CPU and/or memory
  • HPA target utilization settings for CPU and/or memory
  • Max heap size settings for Java
  • Node affinity settings for pods

StormForge regularly generates and updates its recommendations for every workload it watches.

Workload optimization can be automated by enabling recommendation auto-deploy.

When auto-deploy is disabled, recommendations are advisory and can be viewed or applied on-demand.
