A real example

Real cards and a real question.

Made from the CNCF conference talk "Kubernetes Deconstructed" by Carson Anderson (33 min).

Flashcards and quizfrom "Kubernetes Deconstructed: Understanding Kubernetes by Breaking It Down"

What is a Pod in Kubernetes?

A Pod encapsulates one or more containers (plus optional volumes) that run tightly coupled together and share the same network namespace.

1:17

What does an Ingress rule do?

It defines how incoming requests from outside the cluster map to internal services and ports.

2:36

Where does Kubernetes store all cluster resources and state?

In Etcd (or an Etcd cluster).

6:54

7:40What is the primary mechanism the kube-scheduler uses to react instantly to incoming pod requests from the API server?

  1. A controller loop inside the kubelet daemon.
  2. Direct writes to the underlying etcd disk storage.
  3. A long-running watch pub/sub event model.
  4. A cron job that polls the API every 5 seconds.

Why: The scheduler hooks up to the API server with a long watch, so it receives instant notifications instead of constantly polling for differences.

What you get

Active recall, from videos you already chose.

Reading is better than watching. Testing yourself is better than reading.

Cards tied to the video

Each card comes from what the video says and links to the moment it says it.

Quizzes with explanations

Wrong answers teach you something, because every question explains the right one.

Mark what you know

Mark cards as known, then switch to only the cards you don't know yet, so revision time goes to the rest.
