Kubernetes: Test your knowledge #02

Kubernetes has become the backbone of modern infrastructure but managing and observing it effectively takes more than just YAML files and kubectl get pods. This quiz is designed to test your understanding of both Kubernetes fundamentals and the open-source observability stack that keeps clusters healthy and transparent: Prometheus, Alertmanager, Grafana, and related tools.

The questions start with core Kubernetes concepts and gradually move into real-world scenarios involving metrics, custom resources, and monitoring architectures. Whether you’re brushing up for certification, preparing for an SRE interview, or just deepening your hands-on knowledge, each question includes an explanation and official reference so you can keep learning as you go.

Take your time, think through each scenario, and see how well your mental model matches how things really work under the hood.

Good luck — and may your Pods always be healthy, your alerts meaningful, and your dashboards green.

In doubt? No worries! Once you submit your answers an explanation for each question will be provided.
