# Kubernetes Resources

Understanding Kubernetes resource types and their relationships.

## Core Resources

### Pods

The smallest deployable unit in Kubernetes:

```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
  name: my-pod
spec:
  containers:
  - name: app
    image: nginx:1.21
```

### ReplicaSets

Maintains a stable set of replica Pods:

```yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: ReplicaSet
metadata:
  name: my-replicaset
spec:
  replicas: 3
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: my-app
  template:
    # Pod template
```

### Deployments

Manages ReplicaSets and provides declarative updates:

```yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: my-deployment
spec:
  replicas: 3
  strategy:
    type: RollingUpdate
    rollingUpdate:
      maxSurge: 1
      maxUnavailable: 0
  # ...
```

## Networking Resources

### Services

Exposes Pods to network traffic:

- **ClusterIP**: Internal cluster access only
- **NodePort**: Exposes on each Node's IP
- **LoadBalancer**: Cloud provider load balancer
- **ExternalName**: DNS CNAME record

```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: my-service
spec:
  type: ClusterIP
  selector:
    app: my-app
  ports:
  - port: 80
    targetPort: 8080
```

### Ingress

HTTP/HTTPS routing to services:

```yaml
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: my-ingress
spec:
  rules:
  - host: myapp.example.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /
        pathType: Prefix
        backend:
          service:
            name: my-service
            port:
              number: 80
```

## Storage Resources

### PersistentVolume

Cluster-level storage resource:

```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
  name: my-pv
spec:
  capacity:
    storage: 10Gi
  accessModes:
  - ReadWriteOnce
  persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Retain
  storageClassName: standard
```

### PersistentVolumeClaim

Request for storage:

```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
  name: my-pvc
spec:
  accessModes:
