About the Activator

The name activator is actually a misnomer, since after Knative 0.2, the activator no longer activates inactive Revisions.

The only responsibilities of the activator are:

• Receiving & buffering requests for inactive Revisions.
• Reporting metrics to the autoscaler.
• Retrying requests to a Revision after the autoscaler scales such Revision based on the reported metrics.
