A city recreation API should receive traffic only after its readiness probe succeeds. The Service currently has publishNotReadyAddresses set to true for a rare warm-up case that no longer applies. What should the developer do for normal app traffic?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Think of a restaurant that only seats guests once the kitchen says "ready." By default, Services wait for Ready Pods. Turning off publishNotReadyAddresses (or leaving it false) puts that gate back so half-baked Pods do not take live traffic.
Full Explanation
Kubernetes Services normally populate Endpoints with addresses only for Pods that pass readiness. publishNotReadyAddresses is an advanced override used in rare patterns such as some StatefulSet peer discovery. For ordinary application traffic, leave that field false (or omit it) so clients hit Ready Pods only. Removing readiness probes, changing to ExternalName, or using hostPort does not restore the default Ready-before-traffic behavior.
