Resource Management — Certified Kubernetes App Developer (CKAD) Practice Questions
Resource management in Kubernetes refers to declaring the CPU and memory that containers request and are allowed to consume, which the scheduler and kubelet use to place and police workloads. The CKAD exam expects you to set resource requests and limits in a container spec and understand how these values affect scheduling decisions and runtime behavior. When a container exceeds its memory limit it is OOM-killed, and when it exceeds its CPU limit it is throttled, so setting these values appropriately matters for application stability. LimitRanges and ResourceQuotas at the namespace level can also constrain what applications are allowed to request, and you may encounter these in exam scenarios.
