Following are a few limitations that you can encounter while using both Public and Private Node Pools:
The maximum number of pods supported per node is 110. It is a Kubernetes default value.
The recommended maximum number of nodes per node pool is 20.
The maximum number of nodes in a node pool is 100.
A total of 500 node pools per cluster is supported.
The recommended maximum number of node pools per cluster are 50.
The maximum number of supported nodes per cluster is 5000.
Following are a few limitations that you can encounter while using Private Node Pools:
Managed Kubernetes clusters for Private Node Pools are bound to one region. When you create a node pool, you need to provide a data center, which has to be in the same location as defined in the cluster. You can create Private Node Pools only in a see Virtual Data Center (VDC) that shares the region with the managed Kubernetes cluster.
Kubernetes services of type LoadBalancer are currently not supported.
The static node Internet Protocol (IP) addresses are not supported.
