Explain Kubernetes Clusters And Minikube?
What is Kubernetes Clusters?
A Kubernetes cluster is a set of machines (nodes) that work together to run containerized applications efficiently. It is the foundation of Kubernetes’ orchestration, enabling the deployment, scaling, and management of applications in a distributed system.
Kubernetes coordinates a highly available cluster of computers that are connected to work as a single unit. The abstractions in Kubernetes allow you to deploy containerized applications to a cluster without tying them specifically to individual machines. To make use of this new model of deployment, applications need to be packaged in a way that decouples them from individual hosts: they need to be containerized.
Containerized applications are more flexible and available than in past deployment models, where applications were installed directly onto specific machines as packages deeply integrated into the host. Kubernetes automates the distribution and scheduling of application containers across a cluster in a more efficient way.
A Kubernetes cluster consists of two types of resources:
- The Control Plane…
