what are the services in kubernetes?

Question

Accepted Answer

Services in Kubernetes are a way to expose a set of pods as a network service.

Services provide a stable IP address and DNS name for pods.
They can load balance traffic across multiple pods.
There are four types of services: ClusterIP, NodePort, LoadBalancer, and ExternalName.
ClusterIP is the default type and provides a virtual IP address for pods within the cluster.
NodePort exposes the service on a port on each node in the cluster.
LoadBalancer creates an external load balancer to distribute traffic to the service.
ExternalName maps the service to an external DNS name.
Services can be created using YAML or JSON manifests.
