A) Configure a cron job to scale the deployment on a schedule. This seems like a lot of work, and the traffic is inconsistent, so a scheduled scaling wouldn't be very effective.

B) Configure a Horizontal Pod Autoscaler. This is the best option to ensure consistent user experience and optimize resource usage by automatically scaling pods based on metrics like CPU and memory.
