Resource Limits

[mlongarai]

Hello 👋

I was searching through the official documentation and did not find any official resource limit parameterization for the agents.
Is there something I need to consider or can I just use the suggestion described in the values.yaml?

  resources:
     limits:
       cpu: 100m
       memory: 128Mi
    requests:
      cpu: 10m
      memory: 20Mi

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

We do not support limits for the node sensor since it is a kernel module that gets deployed and limiting could cause unintended consequences to your nodes. For the sidecar sensor, limits could be applied, but it is based on your environment and how much the resource spikes. Also, consider that limiting the sidecar might also limit the security response that it is trying to provide.
