GCP GKE - Number of pods per Node


Is there a limit on number of pods per instance on GCP GKE nodes? For example I'm using n1-standard-2 which has 2vcpu and 7.5Gb of RAM. For AWS EC2 instances, there is limit and the following formula:

Max Pods = Maximum supported  Network Interfaces for instance type ) * ( IPv4 Addresses per Interface ) - 1

Is there such a limit for GCP GKE nodes? Or is it that I can run any number of pods as long there is free resources?


Solution

  • The maximum number of pods per node is set to 110
