Master Pod Fails to Start Due to vm.max_map_count Size

I followed the Big Bang developer environment setup. While trying to deploy Big Bang v1.13.0, the logging-ek-es-master-0 pod failed to start due to:

$ kubectl logs pod/logging-ek-es-master-0 -n logging
...
ERROR: [1] bootstrap checks failed. You must address the points described in the following [1] lines before starting Elasticsearch.
bootstrap check failure [1] of [1]: max virtual memory areas vm.max_map_count [65530] is too low, increase to at least [262144]
ERROR: Elasticsearch did not exit normally - check the logs at /usr/share/elasticsearch/logs/logging-ek.log

I resolved the issue by setting vm.max_map_count=262144 in /etc/sysctl.conf, rebooting my EC2 instance, and redeploying Big Bang.
