What is kubernetes cluster?
Kubernetes cluster: The complete set of machines managed together by Kubernetes: a control plane that makes decisions and worker machines that run the containers. Teams often keep separate clusters for development, staging and production.
Kubernetes cluster: an example
A startup runs one small cluster of three worker machines for testing and a larger, separate one for customer traffic.
