Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). The controlledResources field specifies which resource types VPA should manage for a container in a Pod. If not specified, VPA manages both CPU and memory by default. You can restrict VPA to manage only specific resources. Valid resource names include cpu and memory.
