James Boylan commented on SPARK-43496:
--------------------------------------
I can't emphasis enough how important this feature is, and how badly it is
needed. I agree having a default behavior of just setting the limits and
requests based on the Cores and Memory setting makes sense for default, the
configuration is completely counter to standard Kubernetes practice and
actually makes it difficult to manage Spark processes on a cluster in a cost
effective manner.
[~julienlau] *said:*
{quote}new options:
_spark.kubernetes.driver.requests.cpu_
_spark.kubernetes.driver.requests.memory_
_spark.kubernetes.driver.limits.cpu_
_spark.kubernetes.driver.limits.memory_
_spark.kubernetes.executor.requests.cpu_
_spark.kubernetes.executor.requests.memory_
_spark.kubernetes.executor.limits.cpu_
_spark.kubernetes.executor.limits.memory_
if unset then stay consistent with current behavior
if set to 0 then disable this definition
This would also solve the issue that driver/executor core is defined as an
Integer and cannot be 0.5 for a driver.{quote}
Honestly, this would be the absolute perfect implementation of the feature, and
line up exactly how applications should support Kubernetes.
This is an area that Spark is painfully losing out to applications like Flink.
Since Flink does not manage the creation of the Task Managers, it allows
administrators to build out the manifest to specifically meet the needs of
their environment.
I understand why Spark does manage the executor deployments, and I agree with
the reasoning, the configuration options need to be available to handle all of
the settings required within the deployment onto Kubernetes. This is almost
entirely handled by the pod templates, with the exception of Memory and Core
limits/requests settings.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-43496
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Kubernetes
> Affects Versions: 3.4.0
> Reporter: Alexander Yerenkow
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> Whole allocated memory to JVM is set into pod resources as both request and
> limits.
> This means there's not a way to use more memory for burst-like jobs in a
> shared environment.
> For example, if spark job uses external process (outside of JVM) to access
> data, a bit of extra memory required for that, and having configured higher
> limits for mem could be of use.
> Another thought here - have a way to configure different JVM/ pod memory
> request also could be a valid use case.
