Containers are ephemeral. Data must not be. This episode tackles
one of K8s's most misunderstood topics: persistent storage.
💥 Industry Problem:
Pod crashes → restarts on a new node → local storage gone → database
data wiped. This has caused real production data loss at scale.
✅ Solution:
PersistentVolumes (PV) decouple storage from pods. PVCs let apps
claim storage without knowing the underlying infrastructure.
📌 What You'll Learn:
→ Volume vs PersistentVolume vs PVC
→ Access modes: ReadWriteOnce, ReadOnlyMany, ReadWriteMany
→ StorageClass & Dynamic Provisioning
→ Reclaim policies: Retain, Recycle, Delete
→ CSI Drivers (AWS EBS, GCP PD, Azure Disk)
→ Storage for databases in K8s
→ Volume Snapshots
