Exposing Kubernetes Pods Using Services

Kubernetes Services are a great way to combine Kubernetes networking with the dynamic and often automated nature of Kubernetes applications. In this lab, you will use Services to expose existing Kubernetes Pods. This will allow you to practice your skills with Kubernetes Services.

Expose the Pods f as an Internal Service

apiVersion: v1 
kind: Service 
metadata: 
  name: user-db-svc 
spec: 
  type: ClusterIP 
  selector: 
    app: user-db 
  ports: 
  - protocol: TCP 
    port: 80 
    targetPort: 80

Expose the Pods as an External Service

apiVersion: v1 
kind: Service 
metadata: 
  name: web-frontend-svc 
spec: 
  type: NodePort 
  selector: 
    app: web-frontend 
  ports: 
  - protocol: TCP 
    port: 80 
    targetPort: 80 
    nodePort: 30080
