In this guide, you will explore Kubernetes architecture inside-out. Our illustrated guide breaks down every component, from the control plane to the kubelet, showing you how your cluster really works. As seen in the following diagram, Kubernetes follows client-server architecture. Wherein, we have master installed on one machine and the node on separate Linux machines. Understand Kubernetes architecture step by step. Learn how clusters, nodes, and pods work together with real hands-on labs from KodeKloud. Kubernetes, often referred to as K8s, is a powerful open-source platform for automating the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. Its architecture is designed as a distributed system , with components spread across multiple nodes to ensure scalability and reliability.
