CrashLoopBackOff
CrashLoopBackOff is the Kubernetes status of a container that keeps crashing and restarting, with Kubernetes waiting longer between each attempt. The capacity reserved for it stays paid for while it does no useful work. Why it matters: It is a reliability problem that is also a cost: you pay for a workload that is not running.
