DevOps teams' main challenge is to ensure application resiliency and maintain SLAs, while optimizing costs. Limitations in compute resource scaling push teams to over-provision, leading to unnecessary expenses and missed savings opportunities. With a multidimensional automation approach and unique technologies, **Zesty’s Kubernetes Optimization Platform** (“Zesty platform”) ensures effortless and continuous optimization of Kubernetes resources with real-time needs. The offers these solutions: - **Kubernetes resource optimization** - **Multi-dimensional autoscaling**: Automatically align vertical and horizontal resources with real workload behavior to maximize cluster utilization, cut infrastructure costs, and maintain performance under load. For more information, see [Multi-dimensional autoscaling](/v1/docs/multi-dimensional-autoscaling). - **Adaptive Pod placement**: Group unevictable Pods that block consolidation to reduce fragmentation, improve node utilization, and lower compute costs while maintaining application availability. For more information, see [Adaptive Pod placement](/v1/docs/adaptive-pod-placement-1). - **PV autoscaling**: Automatically scale persistent volumes up or down based on real-time usage. Cut idle storage costs by 70% while keeping your applications always available. For more information, see [PV Autoscaling](/v1/docs/storage-optimization). - **Compute cost visibility**: Gain real-time visibility into usage, costs, and potential savings to make data-driven decisions, automate the right workloads, and maximize cost efficiency. - **Spike protection** - **Fast scaling**: Accelerate application boot time with Karpenter by up to 5x to handle unpredictable traffic spikes and maintain high availability under load. For more information, see [Spike protection with Fast scaling](/v1/docs/spike-protection-with-fast-scaling).
