Standard HPA is so totally out now. It scales on CPU but lacks synergy. It doesn’t know if your nodes are sipping clean wind or chugging dirty coal. It’s time to stop "shifting left" and start shifting to the sun!

In this carbon-critical session, we’re ditching boring metrics for Project Kepler. Using eBPF magic—because if it’s not eBPF, is it even Cloud Native?—we’ll expose the raw power consumption of your pods in real-time.

To ground the hype, we’re bringing a physical Solar Panel, lights and a Fan-as-a-Service on stage. Watch the replicas scale to peak intensity the moment our "sun" hits the panel, while industrial fans translate that clean energy into a literal breeze for the front row.

Beyond the hype, come learn how individual pods contribute to your cluster's energy footprint and how to accurately measure it. We’ll showcase a real-time demo of carbon-aware scaling with a few gadgets.
