about this example

Kubernetes' orchestration simplifies container management at scale. This flow diagram illustrates:

API Interaction: Begins with the kubectl create command to the API server, initiating the container lifecycle.
etcd Storage: The API server stores the new pod state in the etcd datastore, ensuring consistent state management.
Scheduling and Assignment: The control plane scheduler watches for unassigned pods, assigns them to nodes, and updates their status.
Container Runtime: Concludes with the node's kubelet starting the container as per the scheduler's decision.

When to use

Container Orchestration Design: For software engineers designing or understanding container orchestration workflows within a Kubernetes environment.
DevOps Training: As a training tool to help DevOps teams grasp the steps involved in deploying containers using Kubernetes.
Automation and Scaling: When automating the deployment process and scaling applications in cloud or on-premises environments.

How to use

Start editing: Duplicate the example file and double-click on the diagram.
Customize diagram: Add/modify nodes, groups, and relationships using a diagram-as-code syntax to align with your Kubernetes setup.
Customize layout: Rearrange elements on the diagram directly on the canvas to fit your architectural needs.
Collect feedback: Encourage collaboration by sharing the diagram with your team and using their comments for iterative refinement.
