When it comes to allocating CPU and memory resources to workloads in Kubernetes, there’s broad agreement on the importance of setting request values, but setting resource limits is a contentious topic. What are your views?

Tired of your JVM being a memory hog?

Rightsizing JVM workloads on #K8s requires knowing what the appropriate heap size should be and then sizing the container around that heap size.
