System requirements for a Kubernetes instance - Port Swigger

Summary: PortSwigger documents how to deploy Burp Suite DAST to Kubernetes using a Helm chart with preset field values for minimum system requirements, requiring an external database and an x86-based cluster. The stated container limits are 100m to 4000m CPU and 128Mi to 8Gi memory per container, with the scan container set at 4000m CPU and 8Gi memory, and CentOS/RHEL v7.x is not supported for cluster worker nodes.
What you should know: The scan container alone is allotted 4000m CPU and 8Gi of memory, so sizing a cluster for this deployment means planning capacity around the heaviest container rather than the average, and object storage such as Google Cloud storage buckets is explicitly discouraged for performance and compatibility reasons.
