How can you get and view container execution logs in Kubernetes?

To obtain and view container logs in Kubernetes, the kubectl logs command is used.

Example usage:

kubectl logs <pod-name>

If the Pod has multiple containers, you need to specify the container name:

kubectl logs <pod-name> -c <container-name>

To view logs with follow (like tail -f):

kubectl logs -f <pod-name>

You can also retrieve logs from a previous instance of a container if it has been restarted:

kubectl logs --previous <pod-name>

Thus, kubectl logs allows quick access to the stdout and stderr of containers, aiding in debugging and monitoring applications.
