What is Kubernetes Architecture?

Kubernetes is an open-source platform designed to automate deploying, scaling, and managing containerized applications. It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery. Understanding the architecture of Kubernetes is crucial for anyone who works with this platform. It helps you to better understand how different components of a Kubernetes cluster interact with each other and how applications are run on this platform.
