Description

What is the general guidance for preventing termination of pods with long-running functions while using KEDA?
In testing, I've seen that during a scale down, the HPA can terminate a pod that is still running an orchestration/activity function.
This behavior is documented here: https://keda.sh/docs/1.4/concepts/scaling-deployments/#long-running-executions
What's the recommended method to prevent this from occurring?

Research direction

No repository files or tests are named. Start with the linked KEDA documentation on long-running executions and review how this Durable Functions SQL provider is deployed with KEDA; done means documenting a repository-specific, recommended way to avoid terminating pods during active orchestration or activity functions.
