A PriorityClass is a named class for the scheduling priority that should be assigned to a Pod in that class.

A PriorityClass is a non-namespaced object mapping a name to an integer priority, used for a Pod. The name is specified in the metadata.name field, and the priority value in the value field. Priorities range from -2147483648 to 1000000000 inclusive. Higher values indicate higher priority.
