Pods

• Pods are the smallest deployable units of computing that you can create and manage in Kubernetes.
• A Pod (as in a pod of whales or pea pod) is a group of one or more containers.
• A pod with multiple container is not a good practice
• Pods can be created using yaml or json
• Pod has multiple states. Running, Pending and succeeded/failed
• Each pod connects to common pod network
• Each pod is an application
• Pods can only be instantiated not created
• Service serves as an internal load balancer for pod
• Each pod has an ip and port
• If more than one container are available in a pod. Each container will have a sperate port address
• Pod either runs or exits
