Kubernetes does way more than keeping our containers running; it proactively watches resource usage of a cluster and carefully schedules pods to the available resources. This type of scheduler-based infrastructure is the key that enables us to run workloads more efficiently than a classical infrastructure.
Scheduling workloads
Optimizing resource utilization
Unsurprisingly, the way in which Kubernetes allocates pods to nodes is based on the supply and demand of resources. If a node can provide a sufficient quantity of resources, the node is eligible to run the pod. Hence, the smaller the difference between the cluster capacity and the...
