Kubernetes Architecture

Control Plane (Master) Components

vControl Plane (Master):

  • Master node is a node which controls and manages a set of worker nodes and resembles a cluster in Kubernetes.
  • Usually Master Node is redundant.
  • A master node has the following components to help manage worker nodes.

I.Kube-APIserver

II.etcd

III.Kube-Scheduler

IV.Kube-Controller-Manager

V.Could-Controller-Manager

Node (Worker Node) Components

vNode (Worker Node):

  • Nodescontains necessary services to run pods & managed by master components.
  • Kubernetes cluster is a set of node machines for running containerized apps.
  • At a minimum, a cluster must contains one worker node and one master node.
  • Worker nodes actually run the applications and workloads.
  • A worker node has the following components:

I.kubelet

II.kube-proxy

III.Container runtime
