A request is the guaranteed minimum the scheduler reserves; it drives placement decisions.
2 / 5
What does a 'limit' do?
-
-

A limit is the hard ceiling; exceeding the memory limit risks OOMKill, and CPU is throttled at its limit.
3 / 5
A container exceeds its CPU limit and is 'throttled'. What does that mean?
-
-
-
-
CPU is a compressible resource: hitting the limit throttles (slows) the container instead of killing it.

-
QoS classes (Guaranteed, Burstable, BestEffort) determine eviction priority when a node is under resource pressure.
