Object types and API versionsΒΆ
Previously made configuration files are used to make kubernetes objects which are slightly different than docker containers.
The term object references a thing that exists in the kubernetes cluster that can be one of many types like:
- StatefulSet
- ReplicaController
- Pod
- Service
- etc
Objects serve different purposes - running a container, monitoring container, setting up networking etc.
When we specify apiVersion in the configuration file scopes types of objects we want to create in the configuration file:
apiVersion: v1- componentStatus
- configMap
- Endpoints
- Event
- Namespace
- Pod
- ...
apiVersion: apps/v1- ConvrollerRevision
- StatefulSet
- ...
