Pod Right-sizing in the Second Decade of Kubernetes

Historically, optimizing resource allocation for Kubernetes workloads was a painful trial-and-error process, forcing developers to choose between high startup costs or lengthy delays. This constant struggle to find the "just right" balance for pod resources diverted valuable time from feature development.
But with In-Place Pod Resize (IPPR) in Kubernetes, those days are over. IPPR streamlines resource management by allowing you to dynamically resize pods without a restart, opening the door to true right-sizing and vastly improved bin packing.
This talk will explore the benefits of IPPR, demonstrate how to leverage it for optimal resource allocation, and show its integration with Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA) to provide startup boosts for your applications.
