<p>I'm migrating some of my applications that today is running on EC2 with Auto Scalling to k8.</p>

<p>Today my Auto Scalling is based on <code>ApproximateNumberOfMessagesVisible</code> metric from SQS queues (That i configured on CloudWatch).</p>

<p>I trying to figure out if i can use this metric to scalling pods of my application in AWS EKS environment.</p>
