SIG Scheduling Update: Multi-Level and Topology-Aware Workload Scheduling

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2026 · Nov 12, 2026 · 11:50 AM – 12:20 PM MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 250 A-C

With Dominik Marcinski

Over the last year, SIG Scheduling has focused on advancing the foundational Workload-Aware Scheduling API and making it generally available. The capabilities have been expanded to encompass topology-aware and multi-level group scheduling. Furthermore, a new Working Group (WG) dedicated to WAS has been established to focus on further development and integration with controllers, allowing SIG Scheduling to focus its efforts on closer integration with autoscalers. During this session, we will explore the major scheduling advancements introduced in recent releases and examine how they align with the broader Workload-Aware Scheduling framework. We will also share key updates from related sub-projects, including Kueue and the Descheduler. To conclude, we will discuss the roadmap for upcoming releases, outline community contributions, and detail opportunities for you to help shape the future of Kubernetes scheduling.

WG-Workload Aware Scheduling: An Introduction

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2026 · Nov 12, 2026 · 11:00 AM – 11:30 AM MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 250 A-C

With Kevin Hannon, Andrey Velichkevich, Matt Matejczyk

The Kubernetes community has been hard at work enhancing the scheduling of workloads. In 2026, the community started adding support for workload aware scheduling and this work was eventually folded into a working group. In this session, we will highlight the APIs added, provide details on the in-tree roadmap and the goal of the working group with respect to the ecosystem. We will discuss the integrations with Kueue and popular workload controllers like JobSet. This session will provide the roadmap and future plans for the working group. We are also looking for engagement from the community.

SIG Autoscaling Project Updates

KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2026 · Nov 10, 2026 · 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM MST

Salt Palace | Level 2 | 254

With Jack Francis, Jason Deal, Kuba Tużnik

The continued embrace of Kubernetes as a platform for AI workloads has presented new challenges for ensuring that clusters and workloads can scale and make efficient use of hardware. There's lots of updates and forward-looking news to share about how the various projects within the SIG are solving these problems. In addition to providing project updates for Karpenter, Cluster Autoscaler, VPA, and HPA, we'll provide a thorough update to the SIG's effort to integrate infrastructure autoscaling into active efforts to nativize AI workloads on Kubernetes: DRA, Workload/Topology Aware Scheduling; and how we're building new abstractions to standardize core dependencies betweeen Cluster Autoscaler and Karpenter. Attendees will leave the session with a better understanding of the the SIG's plans to tackle major AI/ML use cases, ensuring we can meet the needs of workload scaling on Kubernetes now and into the future.
