Kubernetes components and Compose
Our Compose applications are simplistic, but if we look carefully, they do have certain components in place. Those components have their corresponding Kubernetes components.
Compose applications versus namespaces
As we saw in Chapter 11, Deploying Docker Compose to AWS, an ECS cluster can host multiple Compose applications. Our Compose application, in a way, provides a way to group the resources that we provision on an ECS cluster. In Kubernetes, this is done through namespaces. Namespaces can help different applications share a cluster while being logically isolated from each other.
Compose services versus Kubernetes services
In the Compose specification, service represents the context of a service that is backed by one or more containers. As we know, when we define the service, we can configure the name of the underlying containers.
The equivalent of this on Kubernetes is the combination of Kubernetes Pods, Deployments, and Services...
