** Kubernetes Probes: Liveness, Readiness, and Startup Checks Explained
Kubernetes provides three types of probes to manage container health and readiness: liveness, readiness, and startup probes. These probes ensure containers are running properly, restarting or removing them if necessary.
Liveness Probe: checks a container's health and restarts it if failed.
Readiness Probe: determines if a container is ready to accept traffic.
Startup Probe: checks whether a container has started successfully.
Each probe can be configured using HTTP GET, TCP Socket, or Exec probes. These options allow for fine-tuning of probe timing and parameters.
