Kubernetes Node Affinity Explained with Demo | Hard vs Soft Constraints

In this video, I explained about Kubernetes Node Affinity with real hands-on examples. Learn the difference between hard constraints (requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution) and soft constraints (preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution) with step-by-step YAML breakdowns and pod scheduling demos.

We also compare node affinity with nodeSelector, giving you a clear understanding of how to schedule smarter in Kubernetes.
