<p>I've found a few posts on a similar topic, but wanted to clarify: </p>

<p>If I am running Kubernetes in AWS (natively, e.g. by deploying with Kops), is there any mechanism that can deploy additional nodes to the AWS node ASG to cater for resource requirements?</p>

<p>For example, if I deploy a 2 worker node cluster (ASG) that has a total of 8gb of memory, and I create a few kubernetes deployments onto the cluster, where memory requirements become greater than 8gb, is there a mechanism that will abstractly scale the underlying ASG to provide the required resources with me needing to manually increase the size of the ASG?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Have you tried the <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/autoscaler" rel="nofollow noreferrer">kubernetes autoscaler project</a>?</p>

<p>It is AWS compatible so it should answer your requirements</p>
