How to Investigate Kubernetes Pods That Are Evicted Under Memory Pressure

Memory pressure can trigger eviction when node capacity is exceeded or workloads consume more than their requests imply.

Checks to make

Review node conditions, pod events, usage versus requests and limits, and recent workload changes. Identify whether a single pod leaks memory or aggregate demand exceeds capacity. Tune from measurements and protect critical workloads with realistic requests.
