EksContainerResourceRequirements
The type and amount of resources to assign to a container. The supported resources include
memory
, cpu
, and nvidia.com/gpu
. For more information,
see Resource management for pods and containers
Contents
- limits
-
The type and quantity of the resources to reserve for the container. The values vary based on the
name
that's specified. Resources can be requested using either thelimits
or therequests
objects.- memory
-
The memory hard limit (in MiB) for the container, using whole integers, with a "Mi" suffix. If your container attempts to exceed the memory specified, the container is terminated. You must specify at least 4 MiB of memory for a job.
memory
can be specified inlimits
,requests
, or both. Ifmemory
is specified in both places, then the value that's specified inlimits
must be equal to the value that's specified inrequests
.Note
To maximize your resource utilization, provide your jobs with as much memory as possible for the specific instance type that you are using. To learn how, see Memory management in the AWS Batch User Guide.
- cpu
-
The number of CPUs that's reserved for the container. Values must be an even multiple of
0.25
.cpu
can be specified inlimits
,requests
, or both. Ifcpu
is specified in both places, then the value that's specified inlimits
must be at least as large as the value that's specified inrequests
. - nvidia.com/gpu
-
The number of GPUs that's reserved for the container. Values must be a whole integer.
memory
can be specified inlimits
,requests
, or both. Ifmemory
is specified in both places, then the value that's specified inlimits
must be equal to the value that's specified inrequests
.
