In Kubernetes environments, each pod is assigned a unique name within its namespace. The Kubernetes Pod Name identification method allows you to target a specific individual pod by specifying its exact name. This is particularly useful for managing access for standalone pods that are not part of a deployment or for pods with unique names that need to be individually managed.
