Mystery of Vanishing Pod: How Kubelet tracing solves some of the darkest debugging nightmares!
Briefly

Pod startup delays in Kubernetes are often caused by factors in the orchestration and scheduling processes rather than flaws in the application code itself. When a pod is created using kubectl apply, it undergoes a journey involving various Kubernetes components, such as the kubelet and kube-proxy, which are responsible for managing pods and containers. Misconfigurations or resource constraints within the cluster can lead to delays in readiness and affect how quickly the pod starts serving traffic.
When a pod is created using kubectl apply, it goes through a lifecycle that involves several components in the Kubernetes architecture, ensuring it is deployed correctly.
Kubernetes manages the scheduling and lifecycle of pods with precision, but delays can occur due to misconfigurations or resource constraints affecting readiness and startup times.
