But how do these technologies work together, and what makes this integration so effective?

Kubernetes provides a robust service discovery mechanism, allowing services to locate and communicate with each other dynamically. When paired with Spring Boot, it becomes even more seamless, enabling developers to build scalable, resilient, and highly dynamic systems without worrying about manual configurations or hardcoded endpoints.
