Resource Requests — Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) Practice Questions
Resource requests in Kubernetes define the minimum CPU and memory a container is guaranteed by the scheduler when placing pods onto nodes. The CKA exam tests how requests affect scheduling decisions, particularly how a pod may remain in a Pending state when no node has sufficient available resources. Candidates must understand the difference between requests and limits, and how they interact with Quality of Service classes.
