Kubernetes is used for deploying and managing the software in a cloud environment and multiple processes or programs can be added into a single container but for better processing and security, we have to run a single process in a single container. Because maintaining the updates and monitoring the deployment is easier for the single container.
It works in the cluster form, so when a new container is being launched Kubernetes will add it as a “Node” in its cluster. Therefore, it represents a single machine in your cluster which is known as the Node. It is the same as servers in your data center. It can provide the layer of abstractions and we can also monitor the resource such as the CPU that is being utilized by the Node. Nodes can work alone or in-group, in-group they act like a more powerful machine but if you want to utilize the whole resources of a node you have to use it individually. They have persistent volumes also; where they can store the permanent data or the temporary data in form of cache they also have some type of traditional…
