Kubernetes Lab

About

A hands-on lab exploring container orchestration: containerizing a small application with Docker and deploying it to a Kubernetes cluster to study how scheduling, scaling, and service networking work in practice.

Key Features

• Dockerized application images paired with Kubernetes manifests (deployments and services).
• Experiments with horizontal scaling and replica/self-healing behavior.
• Service discovery and networking between pods inside the cluster.

Technical Challenges

• Understanding the Kubernetes object model — pods, deployments, services — and how the pieces compose.
• Configuring container networking and exposing services correctly.

Impact & Results

Built practical grounding in the container-orchestration concepts that underpin modern cloud deployments.
