Allow resizing action of namespace quota

We, IBM CIO, set default namespace quotas in OpenShift clusters. However, some applications need to use more resources than the default resource quotas set. Either due to a technical reason or business criticality. Today, we need to contact SRE te...

Support in-place resource resize without restart

Kubernetes at version 1.27 released a feature to change cpu and memory from containers without trigger a restart. Use this mechanism will boost Turbonomic usage on cloud native targets and minimize the requests for GitOps integrations.Source: http...

kubeturbo CLI support

To make Turbonomic utilization in a high rates, specially by developers and operators, we should have a kubeturbo CLI, so at the k8s terminal we can get pending actions that affect performance or indicate savings, like: kubeturbo get action -perfo...

Turbonomic should interact with OpenShift API for delete actions.

Turbonomic should interact with the OpenShift API for delete actions on volumes. This will allow the cluster to clean up necessary objects like the PV and PVC configurations while deleting the backend volume. This would also solve PaaS specific is...

Add costs estimation by Container Pod

Hi, I'm working with a customer with more than 1500 workloads and base on kubernetes. It would be nice to have the estimated cost by each pod inside a cluster, so they can track and sort by most expensive cluster or pod and execute actions based o...

Ability to report Namespace quota and suggest quota values based on formula

My customer's challenge is that their OpenShift clusters are full in Request while actual resource consumption is very low. There are thousands of namespaces with request quotas in their environment. They would like to have Turbonomic identify the...

Capture Restarts for PODs across time

To give a customer a visibility over how their PODs are performing, if there was any restart happening due to lack of Memory which could help the customer how application pods are performing and also can be used in the POV as how we are helping th...

Consider maximum utilization during POD startup in addition percentile value for the given observation period for memory limit scaling to prevent out-of-memory kills during POD startup

Some POD have a utilization peak during startup. The percentile-based approach may lead to not considering this peak or if the POD isn't restarted during the observation period this peak is not considered. Turbonomic may recommend to scale down th...

It will be greate if turbo resizing action has custom actions like updating other k8s deployment config

When turbo adjust the cpu/memory resource and limits size the container deployments readiness/liveliness probe will be set for the initial values user set when cpu/memory gets resized the container might not be ready in that given time and it will...

Identify when OpenShift is running on baremetal correctly

Redhat OpenShift can be deployed on virtual machines or on baremetal, however all the screens in Turbo are assuming virtual machines are being used and displays all CPU memory value prefixed with "Virtual", so when you deploy on baremetal the labe...
