What was the role of Horizontal Pod Autoscalers (HPA) in handling high traffic volumes?
assistant
HPA dynamically adjusted pod replicas based on CPU and memory metrics, ensuring efficient scaling during high traffic volumes. By preventing resource exhaustion and over-provisioning, HPA enabled the clusters to handle traffic spikes seamlessly, maintaining stable performance. HPA played a key role in handling high traffic volumes by enabling dynamic scaling and preventing bottlenecks.
