Kubernetes

Kubernetes, at its core, is a distributed system designed to orchestrate containerized workloads across a cluster of nodes. First of all, we have the control components. The control plane is the brain of the Kubernetes cluster, responsible for managing the cluster's state and scheduling workloads. In cloud-managed Kubernetes services, the control plane is often abstracted and maintained by the provider, but CKA candidates must still grasp its components. One of the components is the API Server. It is the entry point for all administrative commands, exposed as a RESTful interface. In the cloud, this is typically highly available and load-balanced.
