I agree. We have to expose the value of the secret key key1 using COOL_VARIABLE as the environment variable name inside the pod.

Yes, we need to create a secret named another-secret with key1/value4 and use it in an nginx pod named nginx-secret.

I'm just happy they didn't ask us to use Kubernetes to launch a nuclear missile. That would be a real challenge!

Haha, I bet the person who wrote this question is a secret agent in disguise. 'Another-secret'? Come on, that's straight out of a spy movie!

I think the question is asking us to create a secret and use it in a pod with environment variables.

I agree with Mabel, option D is the way to go. Exposing the secret value as an environment variable is a good security practice.

The correct answer is option D. The task clearly states to create a secret named 'another-secret' with the key/value pair 'key1/value4' and then use that secret as an environment variable in the nginx pod. Option D fulfills all the requirements.
