I explain that while the platform offers tools for distribution time enforcement, it does not provide enforcement once something is running. To tackle this, I introduce the concept of an init container that checks the license and prevents the pod from starting if the license is invalid. I demonstrate this by running Slacker News and expiring the license, showing how the init container keeps the pod from running and generates a Kubernetes event. By describing the pod, users can easily understand why it's not running. I also highlight the benefits of this approach, such as not needing to write code for individual applications.
