Even though the traffic is load balanced among the POD, users still hits a single node i.e. the "Node" which is K8s's minion but a real Load Balancer, right? kube-proxy http://NODEIP:30111 Here also same, imagine the ingress-controller is deployed and ingress-service too. The sub-domain that we specify in ingress-service should points to "a" node in K8s cluster, then ingress-controller load balance the traffic among the pods. Here also end users hitting single nod...
