To set the upper limit on memory to 512 megabytes used by nginx container

$ docker run -m 512m nginx

$ docker ps | egrep -v "k8s"

To set the upper limit on the number of CPUs used by nginx container

By default, access to the computing power of the host machine is unlimited. We can set the CPUs limit using the cpus parameter. For example, let's constrain our container to use at most two CPUs:

$ docker run --cpus=2 nginx
