Restartability is key for cloud-native applications to leverage Kubernetes' core capabilities, including self-healing, automated rollouts, autoscaling, and maintenance eviction. However, achieving robust restartability requires careful application design and precise Kubernetes manifest configurations.

In this session, we will dive into Pod restartability with two practical demonstrations: "HTTP Server" and "Operator with Leader Election". Key topics include:
- The Pod lifecycle focuses on request handling during startup and termination.
- How health probes (readiness, liveness, and startup) change Pod behavior.
- Signal handling and a graceful shutdown implementation.
- Best practices for Pod Disruption Budgets (PDBs) and their common pitfalls

By the end, you’ll gain actionable insights to make your cloud-native applications more resilient, fully aligned with Kubernetes’ self-healing capabilities, and ready for seamless restarts with minimal downtime.
