How does the tool calculate CPU and memory requests?

The `generate_resource_specification` tool looks up the value in your provided metrics (p50, p95, or p99) that matches your chosen strategy percentile and sets that as the request.

What is a 'Guaranteed' QoS class?

A pod is in the Guaranteed class if both its CPU request equals its limit and its memory request equals its limit.

Can I use this to plan for large-scale deployments?

Yes, you can use `estimate_cluster_demand` to project the total CPU and memory footprint required for any number of replicas.

The Kubernetes Resource Request Calculator automates the derivation of optimized pod resource specifications. By analyzing historical usage percentiles (p50, p95, or p99), it calculates precise CPU and memory requests and limits using a configurable multiplier. The tool also validates scaling ratios against best practices and projects total cluster demand based on replica counts. Use generate_resource_specification to create configurations, validate_scaling_ratio to check burst boundaries, and estimate_cluster_demand for fleet-wide resource planning.
