Cluster
A Kubernetes cluster consists of a set of nodes. Of those, a small number are master nodes, which are collectively known as the control plane, and a potentially relatively larger number of worker nodes, which run the cluster's workload.
Node
A node can be a master or worker.
Control Plane
The control plane is the cluster's set of master nodes. The control plane exposes the API via the API Server and contains the cluster store, controller manager, scheduler and other management components. The control plane makes workload scheduling decisions, performs monitoring and responds to external and internal events.
Master Node
The master nodes are sometimes called heads or head nodes, and most often simply masters. Collectively, they represent the control plane.

Data Plane
The data plane is the cluster's set of worker nodes.
Worker Node
A worker node, most often referred simply as "node" (as opposite to master, is where the application services run. Collectively, the worker nodes make up the data plane. A worker node constantly watches for new work assignments.
