In this article, we introduce what the LimitRanger admission controller is, how it is different from ResourceQuota, and how you can use it to manage resources in your Kubernetes cluster. Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform that allows you to deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications with ease.

The LimitRanger admission controller is a built-in admission controller that enforces resource constraints on Kubernetes namespaces.

When a pod is created in a namespace, the LimitRanger admission controller verifies that the pod’s resource requests and limits do not exceed the constraints defined in the namespace’s LimitRange.

I hope that I’ve been able to show you how useful the LimitRanger admission controller can be in helping manage resources in your Kubernetes cluster.
