Hi,

On GKE we have been supporting HPA with custom metrics since version 1.9. If 
you have a group of horizontally autoscaled pods inside your cluster each 
exporting a custom metric then you can set an average per pod target for that 
metric.

An example of that would be an autoscaled deployment of a frontend where each 
replica exports its current QPS. One could set the average target of QPS per 
frontend pod and use the HPA to scale the deployment up and down accordingly. 
You can find the documentation and a tutorial explaining how to set this up 
here: 
https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/tutorials/custom-metrics-autoscaling

Kubernetes 1.10 becoming available on GKE will extend the support for custom 
metrics to include metrics not attached to any Kubernetes object. This will 
give you the ability to scale a deployment based on any metric listed here, for 
example number of messages in Google Pub/Sub queue.

Best,
