Overview
Pods enable you to share storage, networking, and other resources among a group of applications on a single agent. You can then address them as one group rather than as separate applications and manage health as a unit.
Pods allow quick, convenient coordination between applications that need to work together. For example, a primary service and a related analytics service or log scraper. Pods are particularly useful for transitioning legacy applications to a microservices-based architecture.
