Kubernetes API

The Kubernetes API is a communication layer that allows users and applications to interact with a Kubernetes cluster, which is a system for managing containerized applications. It provides a set of defined rules and formats for requesting, modifying, or retrieving information about resources like containers, services, and deployments. Essentially, the API serves as a bridge between users and the underlying infrastructure, enabling seamless management and automation of applications across multiple environments. This helps ensure that applications run reliably, can scale as needed, and are easy to maintain.
