Goldilocks


Get your resource requests "Just Right"











Goldilocks is a utility that can help you identify a starting point for resource requests and limits.

# Documentation
Check out the [documentation at docs.fairwinds.com](https://goldilocks.docs.fairwinds.com/)

## How can this help with my resource settings?

By using the kubernetes [vertical-pod-autoscaler](https://github.com/kubernetes/autoscaler/tree/master/vertical-pod-autoscaler) in recommendation mode, we can see a suggestion for resource requests on each of our apps. This tool creates a VPA for each workload in a namespace and then queries them for information.

Once your VPAs are in place, you'll see recommendations appear in the Goldilocks dashboard:
