Workloads¶

How Kubernetes actually runs your containers, from a single Pod up through the controllers that keep many of them running correctly.

• Pods & Deployments - the basic unit of work and the controller that manages rolling out multiple copies
• Scaling & HPA - automatically adjusting replica count to load
• StatefulSets - workloads that need stable identity and storage
• DaemonSets - one pod per node, for node-level agents
• Jobs & CronJobs - run-to-completion and scheduled work
• Init Containers - setup steps that run before your app container starts
• Scheduling & Placement - taints, tolerations, affinity, and topology spread
