In this episode of ChatLoopBackOff, CNCF Ambassador Henrik Rexed explores Koordinator, a CNCF project focused on improving workload scheduling and resource efficiency in Kubernetes environments.

Koordinator extends Kubernetes scheduling with more fine-grained control over resource usage, helping clusters make better decisions about how workloads are placed and prioritized. The project aims to support mixed workloads, improve utilization, and bring greater predictability to resource management—especially in complex or high-density clusters.

In this session, Henrik will take a hands-on look at how Koordinator works. Expect live exploration, experimentation, and an honest first look at where Koordinator may be useful for platform teams and operators evaluating advanced scheduling strategies in cloud native environments.

Whether you’re curious about Kubernetes scheduling internals, resource optimization, or emerging CNCF projects, join us for a practical and exploratory dive into Koordinator.
