Kubernetes Fundamentals: Orchestrating Containers at Scale Kubernetes helps run containers across many machines. It schedules workloads, restarts failed apps, and coordinates updates so services stay available. This makes it easier for teams to deploy modern applications, whether they run in the cloud or on premises. A cluster has two main parts: the control plane and the worker nodes. The control plane decides where to run tasks and tracks the desired state. The nodes actually run the containers, grouped into pods. Pods are the smallest deployable units and usually hold one container, but can host a few that share storage and network. Deployments manage the lifecycle of pods, while Services expose them inside the cluster or to users outside. ...
