# What is the purpose of a Kubernetes ResourceQuota?

Kubernetes, Medium (Advanced), Concepts. https://k8wiz.com/uquiz/what-is-the-purpose-of-a-kubernetes-resourcequota

- A. To limit the total resource consumption in a namespace
- B. To allocate resources to nodes in a cluster
- C. To request resources for a pod
- D. To monitor resource usage across the cluster

**Answer:** To limit the total resource consumption in a namespace

**Explanation:** ResourceQuotas provide constraints that limit aggregate resource consumption per namespace. They can limit the quantity of objects that can be created in a namespace by type, as well as the total amount of compute resources (CPU, memory) that may be consumed by resources in that namespace.
