In Kubernetes, an endpoint refers to the set of network addresses (IP addresses and ports) that are associated with a Kubernetes service. Endpoints are used to keep track of the Pods that are dynamically assigned to a service. Here's a more detailed breakdown of what endpoints are and how they work: Key Concepts: Services : A Kubernetes Service is an abstraction that defines a logical set of Pods and a policy by which to access them. Services enable network access to a group of Pods in a Kubernetes cluster. Services can be exposed internally within the cluster (ClusterIP), externally to the internet (LoadBalancer or NodePort), or can be headless (without a stable IP address). Pods : Pods are the smallest and simplest Kubernetes objects. A Pod represents a single instance of a running process in your cluster. Pods are ephemeral, meaning they can be created and destroyed dynamically. Endpoints : Endpoints in Kubernetes are the objects that associate a service with the actual Pod IP ...
