Introduction to LimitRange¶

In kubernetes, a LimitRange is an object that allows you to define default and maximum resource limits for pods and containers within a namespace.

The LimitRange ensures that pods adhere to the specified resource constraints on CPU, memory, and storage resources, helping to manage and allocate resources effectively without manual intervention for every pod.

When you create a LimitRange in a namespace, the defined default and maximum resource limits are automatically applied to pods within that namespace, even if you don't explicitly specify them.

Remember that LimitRange is applied at the namespace level, so it affects all containers running within that namespace unless overridden by explicit pod resource requests or limits.

it is recommended to avoid having multiple LimitRange objects in a namespace to prevent conflicts and confusion.
