We begin with an essential introduction to KEDA's new significant feature - scaling modifiers, explaining their purpose and demonstrating their value to users through a practical demo. Next, we shift focus to KEDA's performance improvements, offering a quick tour of our tooling (Grafana K6) and repository. Discover what we measure, how results are obtained, and replicate these test cases in your infrastructure. We'll briefly cover recent enhancements, including performance tweaks, new scalers, and secret provider updates like AWS/GCP authentication. Plus, get insights into our advanced monitoring capabilities with Prometheus, OpenTelemetry, and CloudEvents. The session culminates with an exploration of the HTTP Add-on, detailing path-based routing, comprehensive /scale resource support, and end-to-end coverage improvements.
