How to limit the resources of a docker container?

Limit a container’s resources. By default, a container has no resource constraints and can use as much of a given resource as the host’s kernel scheduler allows. Docker provides ways to control how much memory, CPU, or block IO a container can use, setting runtime configuration flags of the docker run command.

Can a docker container use more memory than the host?

What is the memory reservation option in Docker?
