Abstract
A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for scaling a resource of a Database as a Service (DBaaS) cluster in a cloud platform. User service requests from a service cluster to be processed by the DBaaS cluster are received. A first set of tracing data is generated by a service mesh, which facilitates service-to-service communication between the service cluster and the DBaaS cluster, from the user service requests. A second set of tracing data is generated by the DBaaS cluster from handling the user service requests. A dependency tree is then generated to discover application relationships to identify potential bottlenecks in nodes of the DBaaS cluster based on these sets of tracing data. The pod(s) of a DBaaS node are then scaled based on the dependency tree, which is used in part, to predict the utilization of the resources of the DBaaS node identified as being a potential bottleneck.
