Description

Proposal

Support for GKE Multidimensional Pod Autoscaling

Use-Case

For GKE users it could be interesting to use the Multidimensional Pod Autoscaling feature within KEDA. If KEDA deploys a MultidimPodAutoscaler instead of a HPA the benefits of KEDA could be used while a "VPA" could be configured inside the same YAML.

Is this a feature you are interested in implementing yourself?

No

Anything else?

Might be related to Provide support for Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA)

Not sure how much sense this makes in relation to workloads that scale to 0. Maybe someone has tried scaling to 0 with KEDA and use a VPA simultaneously?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the GKE Multidimensional Pod Autoscaling API and how KEDA currently manages HPA resources. Then design an integration to create MPA resources instead of or in addition to HPAs, considering the differences in configuration and behavior.
