What Is Pod?
Pod is the smallest or fundamental component of a Kubernetes architecture. It is an abstraction over containers or in simpler terms, it is a collection of Linux containers. Pod creates a running environment or a layer on top of the Container. Kubernetes Pods are ephemeral, this means that if a Pod fails, then Kubernetes can automatically create its new replica.
Pod creates a running environment or a layer on top of the Container. Pods are used because Kubernetes wants to abstract away the container runtime or container technologies so that we can replace them if we want to. The pod is usually meant to run one application container inside of it. You can run multiple containers inside one Pod but usually, it’s only the case if you have one main application container and a helper container or some side service that has to run inside of that pod.
How To Share Storage Between Kubernetes Pods ?
Kubernetes or K8s is an open-sourced container orchestration technology that is used for automating the manual processes of deploying, managing and scaling applications by the help of containers. Sharing storage between Pods can be achieved by the help of Kubernetes Volumes, a Volume in Kubernetes is a data storing feature with the help of which we can store data that is persistent and can be accessed by multiple Kubernetes Pod. In this article we will discuss how to How to share storage between Kubernetes Pods using Volumes.
