What are some key components of Kubernetes?

—Some key components include Deployments, ReplicaSets, Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, Ingress, StatefulSets, and Volumes.

How can I integrate CI/CD into Kubernetes?

—You can integrate CI/CD by configuring a release pipeline that automatically deploys your application changes to the Kubernetes cluster using tools like Jenkins or GitLab CI/CD.

What is a service mesh?

—A service mesh is a dedicated infrastructure layer that handles communication between microservices in a Kubernetes cluster. It provides features like service discovery, load balancing, and security.
