Hello, i am pretty new to digitalocean, i am deploying a small poc.
I am trying to make a call between two of my pods but i can’t find the correct way.
I have a pod-a linked on internet by a load balancer.
Then on this pod-a, i am trying to made a get on pod-b by using pod name pod-b.default.pod.cluster.local:3000 and pod-b.default.svc.cluster.local:3000
does anyone know what am i doing wrong ? do i need to configure something to enable this kind of naming ?
thanks a lot

Hey,
The recommended way for pods to communicate with each other is through services.
Assuming you have 2 services service-a & service-b.
Pods in service-a can communicate to service-b pods by using the DNS name : service-b.default
If service-b is in different namespace, then you can use : service-b.namespace.svc.cluster.local
Nevertheless, incase you want pod-a to connect/ping pod-b, you can do that via pod-ip. Reference : https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/connect-applications-service/
