HPA Initial Readiness Delay

Following HPA CPU initialization, this period enables HPA to get CPU metrics more easily.

During this period, HPA will gather data on the CPU usage of the pod for scaling, regardless of any changes in the pod's readiness status.

This parameter ensures continuous tracking of CPU usage, even when the pod statuses change frequently.

For details, see the official documentation.

Default Value

30 seconds

Suggestions

If HPA makes an incorrect scaling decision due to fluctuating CPU usage during pod startup, increase the value of this parameter.

Possible Risks

Setting this parameter to a small value may trigger unnecessary scaling based on peak CPU usage. Setting it to a large value may cause scaling to be delayed.
