📄️ Volume Provisioner
Kubernetes Cluster implements persistent data with the help of Persistent Volumes (PV) and Persistent Volume Claims (PVC). PV is storage provisioned by an administrator, which is similar to Volumes but with lifecycle independent of any individual pod. PVC is a request for the PV storage with a specific size and access mode.
📄️ Persistent Volume Claim
Anytime your application pod needs access to the Persistent Volume (PV), a dedicated PersistentVolumeClaim (PVC) with a specific amount of storage and particular access mode is requested. The platform does not restrict PVCs in any way (including creation). However, there are a few things that you should take into consideration when working with the persistent volume claims:
📄️ Custom Storage
Currently, the only automated option for storage backend is the volume provisioner based on the NFS storage. It can be selected via the package installation wizard. We recommend sticking to this option when working with the Kubernetes Cluster.
