Im trying to set resource limits on some of the deployments in my k8 cluster in AWS,but i was little confused with the relation between Ec2 vcpu vs actual cores.

actaully im running a prometheus components as multiple pods ,so how can i derive the resource limit values for prometheus pods?

The docs here define the meaning of what Kubernetes considers as 1 CPU. 1 AWS vCPU is equivalent to 1 CPU unit in Kubernetes.
