Kubernetes objects are exactly that: they are logical persistent objects or abstractions that will represent the state of your cluster. You are the one in charge of telling Kubernetes what your desired state of that object is so that it can work to maintain it and make sure that the object exists.
To create an object, there are two things that it needs to have: a status and its spec. The status is provided by Kubernetes, and it is the current state of the object. Kubernetes will manage and update that status as needed to be in accordance to your desired state. The spec field, on the other hand, is what you provide to Kubernetes, and is what you tell it to describe the object you desire, for example, the image that you want the container to be running, the number of containers of that image that you want to run, and so on. Each object has specific spec fields...
