Sorry if this is a noob question. But what is the benefit of running services such as nginx on a cluster and not on a single server? Do all services such as nginx running on a cluster benefit from the pooled resources? So lets say I have a basic server. Will I be able to get similar performance by running a kubernetes cluster on say 20 raspberry pi 4? Or it doesn’t work like that?

The benefit is that you are able to easily "manage" the cluster (containers) for scalability. Think in terms of automation. Hope that helps.
