Elements

spec

selector

If this selector is included in the service's definition, the EndpointsController associates this service with the endpoints of pods that match the selector. The labels are applied to pods by the deployment configuration 'spec.template.metadata.labels'.

ports

The list of ports that are exposed by this service.

port

The port that will be exposed by this service. This is part of the service's address, and it should be used by the service's clients to connect to it. This is not the backend pod's port - though it can have the same value as the backend pod's port.

targetPort

The backend pod's port.
