Zbynek Roubalik is the co-creator of KEDA (Kubernetes Event-Driven Autoscaler) and the founding maintainer behind one of the most adopted autoscaling projects in the Kubernetes ecosystem.
While at Red Hat, Zbynek helped design and scale KEDA to power thousands of production workloads worldwide, laying the foundation for modern, event-driven autoscaling.
Recognizing that enterprise teams needed more visibility, multi-cluster management, and production-grade reliability, Zbynek partnered with Open Core Ventures (founded by GitLab’s Sid
Sijbrandij) to create Kedify, a commercial platform that extends KEDA’s power into enterprise environments.
As Founder & CTO, Zbynek leads Kedify’s engineering and product direction, building a platform that combines real-time observability, GPU and HTTP autoscaling, enterprise-level security,
and multi-cloud simplicity. His mission is to help teams scale smarter, reduce cloud costs by 20–40%, and focus on building, not babysitting, infrastructure.
Zbynek continues to contribute to the open-source ecosystem while shaping the future of autoscaling: open-source built, enterprise tuned, and relentlessly focused on ROI.
