Hey, have you heard the one about the Kubernetes engineer who tried to use the Vertical Pod Autoscaler for availability? Talk about a recipe for a cluster meltdown! Anyway, Option B gets my vote.

Option B all the way! Horizontal Pod Autoscaler for availability, Vertical Pod Autoscaler for resource recommendations. Can't go wrong with that. Although, I do wonder if the Cluster Autoscaler could be useful for some extra suggestions...
