Dynamic Kubernetes request right sizing with Kubecost

Kubecost’s Amazon EKS add-on now handles automated container request right-sizing. That means teams can tweak CPU and memory requests based on actual usage—once or on a recurring schedule.

Optimization profiles are customizable, and resizing can be baked into cluster setup using Helm. Yes, that means resource efficiency meets infrastructure-as-code.

Why it matters: Built-in automation for cost-tuned requests points to a bigger trend—Kubernetes resource management that’s proactive, policy-driven, and less of a guessing game.
