This training was truly insightful! It provided an excellent deep dive into the Kubernetes Event-driven Autoscaler (KEDA). Zbyněk did a fantastic job explaining the more complex aspects of KEDA, and introduced the exciting possibilities with "Kedify" for taking things to the next level. The training has inspired me to consider contributing to the project, specifically by exploring the creation of a new Azure Event Hub external scaler. Highly recommended for anyone looking to understand KEDA in depth.
