Kubernetes Deployment

Docker runs one container. Production needs many, self-healing, scaled, configured per environment, and routable from outside the cluster — that's the job Kubernetes does.

Learning objectives

  • Beginner: Explain what Kubernetes adds beyond running a single Docker container.
  • Intermediate: Deploy a service to a local Minikube cluster and expose it via a Service and Ingress.
  • Advanced: Configure liveness vs. readiness probes correctly so a struggling pod is restarted or removed from traffic at the right moment, not both interchangeably.
