Kubernetes Main Resources

✔𝗡𝗼𝗱𝗲: A Node is a Kubernetes cluster’s worker computer. Either a physical or virtual machine may be used. The operating and management of the pods is done by the nodes.

✔𝗡𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗲: The cluster resources can be split up into virtual clusters using namespaces. It gives names a range and enables many teams or projects to share the same physical cluster while isolating their resources.

✔Deployment : simplifies the process of managing and controlling the lifecycle of applications in a Kubernetes cluster, making it easier to deploy and update applications with minimal downtime and manual intervention.

✔𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗦𝗲𝘁: ReplicaSets are Kubernetes objects that guarantee a certain number of pod replicas are always active. Scaling and managing the number of pods for a certain application are done using it.

✔Ingress: in Kubernetes is an API object that serves as an entry point for external traffic into the cluster, acting as a layer between the external world and the services running inside.

✔𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲: A logical set of pods and a policy for accessing them are defined by a service, which is an abstraction. For the pods behind it, it offers a reliable network endpoint (IP address) and load balancing.

✔𝗣𝗼𝗱: A Pod is the smallest and most basic unit in Kubernetes. It represents a single instance of a running process or a set of tightly coupled processes running together on a node. Pods are scheduled and managed by Kubernetes.

✔Network policies: in Kubernetes are a set of rules that control the traffic flow between pods within a cluster. Network policies enhance security and provide granular control over network traffic within the cluster.

✔Persistent Volumes (PVs): Kubernetes are storage resources that provide durable and independent storage for applications. PVs enable data persistence and can be dynamically provisioned or statically allocated within the cluster.

✔Persistent Volume Claims : (PVCs) in Kubernetes are requests made by applications for storage resources. PVCs provide a convenient abstraction layer, allowing applications to request and access persistent storage without directly dealing with specific PVs.

✔Service Accounts: in Kubernetes are used to provide an identity and access control for pods within the cluster. Service Accounts facilitate secure communication and authorization between pods and the Kubernetes cluster.

✔Storage Classes : in Kubernetes are used to dynamically provision different types of storage volumes based on predefined configurations.It enable flexibility and scalability in allocating storage for applications within the cluster.
