Kubernetes Up & Running

self-healing systems

decoupling: easy to scale the programs

• Pods, or groups of containers, can group together container images developed by different teams into a single deployable unit.
• Kubernetes services provide load balancing, naming, and discovery to isolate one microservice from another.
• Namespaces provide isolation and access control, so that each microservice can control the degree to which other services interact with it.
• Ingress objects provide an easy-to-use frontend that can combine multiple micro‐ services into a single externalized API surface area.
