What is the purpose of "annotations" versus "labels" on Kubernetes objects?
Correct! Well done.
Incorrect.
The correct answer is B) Labels are used for identifying and selecting objects (and are subject to selector queries), while annotations attach arbitrary non-identifying metadata to objects, often used by tools for additional information without affecting selection
Correct Answer
Labels are used for identifying and selecting objects (and are subject to selector queries), while annotations attach arbitrary non-identifying metadata to objects, often used by tools for additional information without affecting selection
Labels are meant for identifying/grouping resources via selectors (and have size/format restrictions for indexing), while annotations can hold larger, more arbitrary metadata (like build info or tool-specific configuration) not used for selection.
