Basic Architecture of Kubernetes

Explore the fundamental architecture of Kubernetes by understanding the roles of master and worker nodes. Learn how the master node manages clusters, nodes, and Pods through components like the API server, scheduler, controller manager, and etcd. Gain insight into scheduling Pods efficiently across nodes to maintain high availability within a Kubernetes cluster.

We'll cover the following...

In Kubernetes, we have a master node, which is comparable to the manager of a team. Then we have worker nodes, which can be compared to the team members. So the master and worker nodes together form a team known as a cluster. The master node manages this cluster.

When we deploy our application on Kubernetes, we get a cluster. In a cluster, we need to have at least one master and one worker node. There can be more than one master node in a cluster to ensure high availability. We can also have multiple clusters in Kubernetes architecture. ...
