Kubernetes - Resource allocation

We all know that pod contain containers that run applications. It is required to allocate resources

to the container which they can use. Here is an example of allocating resources to the containers

in the pod

[root@manja17-I13330 kubenetes-config]# cat basic-single-container-pod.yml

apiVersion: v1

kind: Pod

metadata:

 name: testing-service

spec:

 containers:

   - name: test-ser

     image: docker.io/jagadesh1982/testing-service

     ports:

     - containerPort: 9876

     resources:

       limits:

         memory: "64Mi"

         cpu: "500m"

Once we create the pod using the kubectl command and describe the pod we can see the limits defined as,

Limits:

     cpu:   500m

     memory:  64Mi

Requests:

     cpu:      500m

     memory:     64Mi

So we have the limits defined as requested and allocated.
