Resources Limits

It is recommended to set the memory requests and limits to prevent OOM killer.

# values.yaml
resources:
  limits:
    memory: 256Mi
  requests:
    memory: 256Mi

Persistence

This chart uses sqlite embedded database by default. You can set the external database connection, for example:

# values.yaml
externalDatabase:
  type: POSTGRES
  host: xxx.us-west-2.rds.amazonaws.com
  database: nextcloud
  username: nextcloud
  password: nextcloud

This chart creates a PersistentVolumeClaim with 8GB volume by default. You can set size as follows:

# values.yaml
persistence:
  size: 100Gi
