Keda cron scaler for infra provisioning during low traffic hours

[sravya-mallapu]

If I am using Keda with multiple triggers including container cpu metric and other custom metrics and I want to use a cron scaler to scale down the replicas below the usual minReplica count, is that possible? Also, during the cron trigger time, will the other triggers be active and continue to scale up if needed?

Example, minReplica is 3 and desiredReplicas during few hours, let's say 9 to 11 pm, everyday is 1. Can the cron scaler scale down from 3 to 1 during 9 - 11 pm ? During these 2 hours, will the other triggers continue to work as before and scale up if needed?

Yes, during the cron trigger time, the other triggers will be active and continue to scale up if needed.
But if you specify that the minReplicas should be 3 and the cron trigger specifies that it should have a desiredReplicas of 1, then you will get the minimum you specified, so 3.
