Problem

Scaling applications to efficiently handle increased load is crucial. Operations teams face challenges when dynamically scaling instances, particularly during peak usage, while ensuring Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) checks for specific thresholds. Manually monitoring and approving scaling can be time-consuming and error-prone, risking downtime or degraded performance. Automating the approval process and scaling operations can accelerate response to demand changes, ensure consistent performance, and enhance user experience and operational efficiency.

Solution

PagerDuty Automation handles app and service scaling by automating the deployment and scaling of applications in Kubernetes clusters, ensuring efficient resource allocation. It streamlines HITL approvals by managing approval tasks for specific services or thresholds, adding oversight where necessary. PagerDuty integrates with systems of record to automate ticket creation and resolution related to changes, ensuring accurate tracking and faster response times.
