AWS Karpenter is an open-source Kubernetes cluster autoscaler developed by AWS to enhance resource allocation and cost optimization beyond the capabilities of the default Kubernetes autoscaler.

Karpenter is now available in Beta at Qovery, allowing users to integrate this tool and significantly reduce AWS costs, optimize resource usage, and improve application performance without manual scaling efforts. Qovery emphasizes the importance of cost optimization in cloud infrastructure, offering solutions like AWS EKS and Karpenter to lower AWS expenses while ensuring high performance and reliability. The company encourages users to participate in the Beta phase to experience the benefits of Karpenter firsthand and aims to provide an efficient and cost-effective cloud infrastructure in line with their philosophy of paying only for utilized resources.
