I'm trying to terminate a Kubernetes pod, which only contains one container, when the app in the container exits. I'm using a "kind:deployment" to run the pod, and the application is terminating with "SpringApplication.exit". However the pod is restarting, rather than terminating. Does anyone have any idea how I can get the pod to terminate, rather than restart? All advice gratefully received!

If you are not running a web application but a task that does some work and finishes, then you should go with a Job:

If you want to perform your task periodically, then use a cronjob:
