# Pods

Pods are the smallest and most basic units that can be created and managed by Kubernetes in the **Service Portal Cloudeka**. A Pod contains one or more containers that share a network with a single cluster IP address, shared storage called volumes, and information about other resources.

On the **Workloads** page, select the **Pods** tab.

a. The **Search** column is used to search for Pods on the Name and Namespace columns in the Pods table.

b. The **Create Pods** button is used to create a new Pod in the Kubernetes cluster. A Pod is the smallest deployable unit in Kubernetes that contains one or more containers running an application.

c. The **Pods table** displays a list of Pods used in your project in Kubernetes on the Service Portal.
