One thing since we released Pure Service Orchestrator I get asked is, “How do we control how much developer/user can deploy?”
I played around with some of the settings from the K8s documentation for quotas and limits. I uploaded these into my gists on GitHub.
git clone git@gist.github.com:d0fba9495975c29896b98531b04badfd.git
#create the namespace as a cluster-admin
kubectl create -f dev-ns.yaml
#create the quota in that namespace
kubectl -n development create -f storage-quota.yaml
#or if you want to create CPU and Memory and other quotas too
kubectl -n development create -f quota.yaml
This allows users in that namespace to be limitted to a certain number of Persistent Volume Claims (PVC) and/or total requested storage. Both can be useful in scenarios where you don’t want someone to create 10,000 1Gi volumes on an array or create one giant 100Ti volume.
