Cluster Architecture, Installation and Configuration is the foundational domain of the CKA exam, covering how Kubernetes clusters are structured and deployed. Candidates must understand the roles of control-plane components including the API server, etcd, scheduler, and controller manager, as well as worker node components such as the kubelet and kube-proxy. This domain also tests the ability to bootstrap clusters using kubeadm, manage kubeconfig files for authentication, configure role-based access control, and upgrade clusters safely. A solid grasp of this domain is required before reasoning about any higher-level Kubernetes workload or networking behavior.
