This page represents practice test consisting of questions and answers on Kubernetes. This practice test covers the topic such as Kubernetes Services. The practice test can prove to be very helpful if you are preparing to take Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA) certification examination in near future. It covers the Networking Concepts from CKA certification exam syllabus which can comprise of 11% questions in CKA certification exam.

Revision Notes – Kubernetes concepts on Services
- A Kubernetes service is an abstraction which is used to define a logical set of pods.
- A Kubernetes service is assigned an IP address.
- In service spec definition, port refers to incoming port which is mapped to targetPort on Pod. By default, the value of targetPort is set to same value as port.
- targetPort can be a string, referring to the name of a port in the backend Pods.
- Kubernetes services support both TCP and UDP for protocols.
- A service can be defined without a label selector for some of the following reasons:
- Point to another service in another Namespace.
- Integrate with backends running outside of Kubernetes
- A service not defined without a label selector requires one of the following to happen:
- Define endpoint with an ip address and a port for connecting to external services
- Define ExternalName service which serves as a way to return an alias to an external service residing outside the cluster.
- Every node in a Kubernetes cluster runs an instance of kube-proxy and kubelet.
- Kube-proxy is responsible for implementing a form of Virtual IP for Services.
- In iptables mode, Kube-proxy installs iptables rules for capturing traffic to the Service’s virtual clusterIP and Port.
- Kube-proxy running in following modes supports following as load balancing algorithm
Proxy modes | Load-balancing algorithm |
---|---|
Userspace | Round-robin |
Iptables | Random |
IPVS | round-robin, least connection, source / destination hashing, shortest expected delay, never queue |
- Service supports exposing more than one port, say http(80), https(443).
