Kubernetes dashboard is a web-based user interface which provides information on the state of the Kubernetes cluster resources and any errors that may occur. The dashboard can be used to deploy containerized applications to the cluster, troubleshoot deployed applications, as well as the general management of the cluster resources.
The deployment of Deployments, StatefulSets, DaemonSets, Jobs, Services and Ingress can be done from the dashboard or from the terminal with kubectl. if you want to scale a Deployment, initiate a rolling update, restart a pod, create a persistent volume and persistent volume claim, you can do all from the Kubernetes dashboard.
