If you’re like many engineers, this question might make you anxious. Reliability is a difficult metric to quantify in a meaningful way, let alone measure.

Within Kubernetes, the Domain Name System (DNS) plays a pivotal role in facilitating service discovery, allowing pods to effectively locate and interact with other services within the cluster. For organizations transitioning their workloads to Kubernetes, establishing connectivity with services external to the cluster is equally important.
