Multi-team platform, mission 5 of 5

No room to roll

advanced, about 12 minutes, in the Kubernetes Simulator

Start mission

Opens once you pass Fair share.

The briefing

Checkout needs to ship nginx 1.28 to web today. Watch the platform channel — something is changing under you.

A rolling update adds a new pod before it removes an old one (maxSurge). Everything a namespace runs counts against its quota, even for a moment.

What you'll do

  • web in checkout: 2 ready pods on nginx:1.28
  • Checkout keeps a pod quota
  • Bonus star: Find the refusal in the events

The mission checks the cluster, not your keystrokes: any fix that works, passes.
