 ## Additional environment variables
 To tweak CCM based on needs, one can overwrite the default values set for caches and requests by setting appropriate environment variables when applying the manifest or helm chart.

 ## Generating a Manifest for Deployment
 Use the script located at `./deploy/generate-manifest.sh` to generate a self-contained deployment manifest for the Linode CCM. Two arguments are required.
