What does it mean that Kubernetes Pods are evicted? They are terminated, usually the result of not having enough resources. But why does this happen? Eviction is a process where a Pod assigned to a Node is asked for termination. One of the most common cases in Kubernetes is Preemption, where in order to schedule a new Pod in a Node with limited resources, another Pod needs to be terminated to leave resources to the first one.
