[+]Quantities are representations of small or large numbers using a compact, whole-number notation with SI suffixes. Fractional numbers are represented using milli units, while large numbers can be represented using kilo, mega, or giga units.
For instance, the number
1.5is represented as1500m, while the number1000can be represented as1k, and1000000as1M. You can also specify binary-notation suffixes; the number 2048 can be written as2Ki.The accepted decimal (power-of-10) units are
m(milli),k(kilo, intentionally lowercase),M(mega),G(giga),T(terra),P(peta),E(exa).The accepted binary (power-of-2) units are
Ki(kibi),Mi(mebi),Gi(gibi),Ti(tebi),Pi(pebi),Ei(exbi). -

Upstream (disambiguation)LINK
May refer to: core Kubernetes or the source repo from which a repo was forked.
[+]- In the Kubernetes Community: Conversations often use upstream to mean the core Kubernetes codebase, which the general ecosystem, other code, or third-party tools relies upon. For example, community members may suggest that a feature is moved upstream so that it is in the core codebase instead of in a plugin or third-party tool.
- In GitHub or git: The convention is to refer to a source repo as upstream, whereas the forked repo is considered downstream.
