Knowledge Base & Operational DocumentationHow to Troubleshoot Kubernetes Pods That Cannot Connect to a Database Service
A pod may fail to connect to a database because of network policy, service name, secret, TLS settings, connection limits, or database-side firewall rules. A database may be healthy for other clients while one namespace is blocked.
What to check
Test DNS and port reachability from the affected namespace, inspect service and endpoint objects, credentials references, TLS configuration, network policy, and database connection logs. Avoid exposing passwords during checks.
Recommended next step
Correct the specific path or identity issue, then verify a real application connection with least privilege. Monitor connection pool use and avoid relaxing database access broadly.
