Understanding Kubernetes Architecture
Exploring the control plane and worker nodes
Kubernetes is a powerful tool for managing containerized apps. It automates many complex tasks in deployment, scaling, and operations.
But what’s the secret behind its power? It all comes down to its architecture. Kubernetes is a system of interconnected parts that work together.
Understanding this architecture is your key to unlocking Kubernetes’ full potential. It’s the foundation for everything you’ll do within a Kubernetes cluster.
This article will break down the Kubernetes architecture into bite-sized pieces. We’ll explore the control plane (the brains of the operation) and the worker nodes (where the action happens).
To understand the basic concepts, take a quick look at these articles:
