requests is used by the scheduler to decide if the node has enough resources for the pod. Can be useful when multi node clusters are used. Currently set to a very low value, so a pod can always be scheduled on the single node.

limits is used to actually limit resources to a container. By default is set to 4 cpu and 8GiB RAM.

You can define only what you want to change, and the rest will be pulled from defaults.

Examples:

resources:
  limits:
    cpu: 8000m
    memory: 16Gi
  requests:
    cpu: 10m
    memory: 50Mi
