Metrics

The metric configuration defines which metric type is watched by the Autoscaler.

Setting metrics per revision

For per-revision configuration, this is determined using the autoscaling.knative.dev/metric annotation. The possible metric types that can be configured per revision depend on the type of Autoscaler implementation you are using:

  • The default KPA Autoscaler supports the concurrency and rps metrics.
  • The HPA Autoscaler supports the cpu metric.

For more information about KPA and HPA, see the documentation on Supported Autoscaler types.

  • Per-revision annotation key: autoscaling.knative.dev/metric
  • Possible values: "concurrency", "rps", "cpu", "memory" or any custom metric name, depending on your Autoscaler type. The "cpu", "memory", and custom metrics are supported on revisions that use the HPA class.
  • Default: "concurrency"

        autoscaling.knative.dev/target-utilization-percentage: "70" 

Note

The autoscaling.knative.dev/target-utilization-percentage annotation for "Concurrency" specifies a percentage value. See Configuring targets for more details.

        autoscaling.knative.dev/target: "150"

Note

The autoscaling.knative.dev/target annotation for "Requests per second" specifies an integer value. See Configuring targets for more details.

        autoscaling.knative.dev/target: "100"

Note

The autoscaling.knative.dev/target annotation for "CPU" specifies the integer value in millicore. See Configuring targets for more details.

        autoscaling.knative.dev/metric: "memory"
        autoscaling.knative.dev/target: "75"

Note

The autoscaling.knative.dev/target annotation for "Memory" specifies the integer value in Mi. See Configuring targets for more details.

You can create an HPA to scale the revision by a metric that you specify. The HPA will be configured to use the average value of your metric over all the Pods of the revision.

apiVersion: serving.knative.dev/v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: helloworld-go
  namespace: default
spec:
  template:
    metadata:
      annotations:
        autoscaling.knative.dev/class: "hpa.autoscaling.knative.dev"
        autoscaling.knative.dev/metric: "<metric-name>"
        autoscaling.knative.dev/target: "<target>"

Where <metric-name> is your custom metric.
