Kubernetes is an open-source platform for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It provides resource management features for managing CPU, memory, storage, and network for applications.
CPU and Memory Management:
Kubernetes allows users to set resource requests and limits for containers, specifying the minimum and maximum amount of resources that a container needs. This can be done using the requests
and limits
fields in the container spec. For example:
spec:
containers:
- name: my-container
image: my-image
resources:
requests:
cpu: 100m
memory: 128Mi
limits:
cpu: 200m
