Resource Consumption shows how much CPU and memory your cluster is using compared to its total capacity.

Resource Consumption (Requests) shows how much CPU and memory your cluster is requesting compared to its total capacity.
What you see:
- - CPU Bar: Shows CPU usage vs. capacity
- - Memory Bar: Shows memory usage vs. capacity
- - Overcommit %: How much you're over-allocating resources
+ - CPU Bar: Shows CPU requests vs. capacity
+ - Memory Bar: Shows memory requests vs. capacity
+ - Overcommit %: How much you're over-allocating resources based on requests
+
+
+
Important distinction:
+
+ - Requests ≠ Usage - This shows what pods are configured to request, not actual consumption
+ - Planning tool - Helps understand resource allocation planning
+ - Configuration-based - Based on pod specifications, not real-time metrics
Reading the bars:
- - Green: Safe usage levels
+ - Green: Safe request levels
- Yellow: Moderate usage, monitor
- Red: High usage, take action

Top Resource Consumers shows which applications are using the most CPU and memory resources.

Top Resource Request Consumers shows which applications are requesting the most CPU and memory resources based on their configuration.
What you see:
- Ranking from 🥇 (highest) to 5️⃣ (fifth highest)
- Pod name and namespace
- - Resource usage in CPU cores and memory GiB
+ - Resource requests - what each pod is asking for (not actual usage)
- QoS class (Guaranteed, Burstable, BestEffort)

Important distinction:

+ - Requests ≠ Usage - This shows what pods are configured to request, not what they actually use
+ - Configuration-based - Based on pod specifications, not real-time metrics
+ - Planning tool - Helps understand resource allocation planning

+
Why it matters:
-
Identifying top consumers helps you understand which applications are using the most resources and may need optimization.
+
Shows which workloads are configured to use the most resources, helping with capacity planning and optimization.
