Episode notes
Unintended Consequences of Not Setting Resources
- Not setting resource requests and limits can lead to unintended consequences, like best-effort pods being preempted.
- This can cause reliability issues as pods may be killed without notice when nodes become full.
Set Resource Requests and Limits
- Set resource requests and limits for your Kubernetes workloads.
- This helps with scheduling, bin packing, and cost allocation, ensuring reliability and performance.
Future of Kubernetes
- While Kubernetes is complex now, requiring manual resource management, it's expected to become simpler.
- In the future, the platform may automatically determine optimal resource allocation for applications.
