Hi Lakmal, This is on demand. we do not create an HPA kind for each application / > service version that user creates.
This means we initially provide a settings level config to enable autoscaling for an application rather than creating an HPA for each application / service user creates. We only create HPA for apps / services which are configured (enabled) autoscaling. But we might have to revisit and work on UX accordingly to provide server less experience of AppCloud with subscription tiers and all.
