Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA) — Question 106

What element allows Kubernetes to run Pods across the fleet of nodes?

Answer options

• A. The node server.
• B. The etcd static pods.
• C. The API server.
• D. The kubelet.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The kubelet is responsible for managing Pods on each node, ensuring that they are running and healthy. The node server refers to the physical or virtual machine itself, while etcd static pods and the API server play different roles in the Kubernetes architecture, such as storing cluster state and handling API requests respectively.
