You just pushed your app to your Kubernetes cluster. You can't wait to jump to your web browser and see your work come to life on the screen. You type in the URL for the app, but you quickly see something is wrong. You log into your cluster to investigate and find this error:
⏳ Pending
Your pod is stuck in "Pending" state because the scheduler can’t find a suitable node.
🔍 This usually happens due to insufficient resources or missing tolerations/node selectors.
Not sure what I mean by scheduler or node selectors? Keep an eye out for my upcoming free Kubernetes 101 course coming soon!
