#13 Pods Communicate in Kubernetes | Spring Boot Example (Minikube Tutorial)

In this video, we build a real working example of Pod-to-Pod communication in Kubernetes using Spring Boot applications running inside Minikube. We will: * Create two Spring Boot apps (PodA and PodB) * Containerize them using Docker * Deploy them as Kubernetes Pods * Enable communication using Pod IP (no Service used) * Test communication using kubectl port-forward This video is focused on understanding the fundamentals of Kubernetes networking before introducing Services. Important Notes: * This approach uses Pod IP and is NOT production-ready * Pod IP changes when a pod restarts * In real-world systems, Kubernetes Services are used for stable communication Tech Stack: * Spring Boot * Docker * Kubernetes (Minikube) * kubectl By the end of this video, you will clearly understand how Pods communicate internally inside a Kubernetes cluster.
