I mean, why run Kubernetes cronjobs? Why not just start it manually? Is it just to automate some task by invoking a pod?
It's for automated tasks yes.
A cronjob scheduled every 10 minutes, will spawn a new pod every 10 minutes.
If a pod failed, you can watch the logs, analyze and understand why this case has failed.
