Here's a very late answer:<br /><br />The grouping mechanism described in this blog post is basically just a means to group similar services from a functional perspective.<br /><br />Furthermore, the units of deployment in the diagrams are not always containers, but they can be all kinds of resources, such as databases (hosted by a DBMS), AWS lambda functions, Docker containers, virtual machines etc.<br /><br />Sometimes a number of these resources can be grouped together because they all contribute to the same functional objective. For example, a service may have a storage back-end, REST API, and front-end that all have been implemented as separate resources, but logically they all contribute sub functionality for a certain service.<br /><br />The Pod is basically a resource that is Kubernetes specific -- a means to make sure that multiple containers are deployed to the same machine/node and that the containers (that themselves are typically single root process applications) are allowed to interact with each other.<br /><br />Pods are basically a mechanical solution to allow processes to interact, whereas the groups in this blog post are a means to separate functionality from implementation.Sander van der Burghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12718166966821611609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397115249631682228.post-64596711632738324912019-03-31T23:35:17.011+02:002019-03-31T23:35:17.011+02:00Hi Sander, how do you match Kubernetes or Pods in ...Hi Sander, how do you match Kubernetes or Pods in your environment/machines/application classification? For instance PostgreSQL Pod is a Databases "container", but Kubernetes is also a Docker images "containers". Thanks ind advance. I really appreciate your work on Nix.huevo5050https://www.blogger.com/profile/18292331515816823103noreply@blogger.com
