Key components of Kubernetes architecture include Pods, Nodes, Clusters, Services, and Controllers.
Kubernetes administration involves tasks like deploying applications, scaling resources, monitoring cluster health, and managing updates.
Kubernetes uses declarative configuration files (YAML) to define desired state and automatically reconcile with current state.
Common administration tools for Kubernetes include kubectl, Helm, and monitoring solutions like Prometheus and Grafana.
