Directly using ReplicaSet
A ReplicaSet's purpose is to maintain a stable set of replica Pods running at any given time. However, a Deployment is a higher-level concept that manages ReplicaSets and provides declarative updates to Pods along with a lot of other useful features. Therefore, we recommend using Deployments instead of directly using ReplicaSets.
