Overview

Kubernetes is a container orchestrator. To understand how it works is to understand a set of high level concepts, briefly mentioned here. More details on individual concepts are available on their respective pages. All interactions with a Kubernetes cluster are performed by sending REST requests into an API server. The API server is responsible with managing and exposing the state of the cluster. The cluster consists in nodes. Nodes are used to pods. Pods are scheduled to nodes and monitored closely by the cluster.
