<p>I need help understanding how Kubernetes handles requests upon a pod restart.</p>
<p>If I have two pods running on a Kubernetes cluster and one dies or restarts midway, does the current request that the first pod is handling get transferred to the second pod or does the current request fail?</p>

<p>Kubernetes sends traffic only when the pod is running perfectly, now if in the mean time of serving the request pod dies then that traffic will fail.</p>
