Architecture Overview

Master Node

Central control plane managing the cluster state, scheduling, and API endpoints.

Worker Nodes

Execution environment for containerized applications, managed by the master.

Virtual Network

Overlay network connecting all nodes with encrypted communication channels.

Key Components

  • Container Runtime (Docker, containerd)
  • Service Discovery
  • Load Balancing
  • Persistent Storage

Scalability

Easily scale worker nodes up or down based on workload demands with minimal configuration.

Security

Built-in network policies and role-based access control (RBAC) for secure operations.

Monitoring

Integrated metrics and logging for comprehensive observability of cluster components.
