Kubernetes doesn't provide data persistence out of the box, which means when a pod is re-created, the data is gone.
So, you need to create and configure the actual physical storage and manage it by yourself. Once configured, you can use that physical storage using Kubernetes storage components. In this video I show you 3 different Kubernetes volume components, that you need to use to connect the actual physical storage to your pod, so that the application inside the container can access it.
The 1st component "Persistent Volume" is a cluster resource, like CPU or RAM, which is created and provisioned by administrators. The 2nd component "Persistent Volume Claim" on the other hand is a user's or pod's request for a persistent volume. With the 3rd component "Storage Class" you can dynamically provision Persistent Volume component and so automate the storage provisioning process.

[@ernavneetkverma]

Hey, First of all thanks for these great videos. I have a question for what you explained around 10:29 minutes wherein you mentioned the connection between a PVC config and the Pod config wherein the PVC is being referred to. I found one point missing here. How is the PVC config you showed is connected to the PV. Is it that when the storageClassName attribute is defined as "manual" the PVC is considered to be claiming it's backed storage from a PV ? Because later on in the video when you explain how a PVC is connected to a SC you clarified that the storageClassName is set to the name of the Storage Class. Appreciate if you could clarify this part or if I am missing something here. Thanks!

[@ernavneetkverma]

Alright, so I might be answering myself on the above question and also for those who might be having the same question when going through this video. As per the documentation (kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-persistent-volume-storage/) it does appear that the storageClassName needs to be defined even when a PVC wants a claim from a PV instead of a SC, and the value of the storageClassName needs to be "manual". Hopefully I understood it right now.

[@ernavneetkverma]

Also when at time 20:11 you mention that we add additional attribute named storageClassName in the PVC, it actually is not an additional attribute per what I wrote above but instead a name which is not the string "manual".

[@sajeevaraju908]

@TechWorld with Nana Is that possible? To mount a PVC volume in a Linux VM, Because I need to share the same common storage volume for both VM and pod.

[@daniellin3784]

Whenever I have blind spot of Kubernetes, I search through this channel. And it never let me down.

[@HrittikExplains]

I agree!!!

[@mostinho7]

Done thanks Types of volumes: 1. Persistent volumes 2. Persistent volume claim 3. Storage class When a pod is restarted, storage is deleted. Data persistence needs to be configured for applications that need storage between pod restarts. But you don’t know which node your pod will be restarted on, so the storage must be accessible from all nodes. Storage also needs to survive entire k8s cluster crashes/restarts Persistent volume is a kubernetes resource (like RAM), gets created using yml file 2:30 The actual storage of the volume is taken from either local storage, external nfs servers, cloud storage 4:30 defining which storage backend to use for a PersistentVolume Local storage has a nodeAffinity attribute PersistentVolumes dont belong to a namespace, accessible to whole cluster 7:15 local vs remote volume types, but local volumes are not really persistent. They are specific to one node, and do not survive a cluster crash Persistent volume objects should be created before the pods that depend on them 9:30 A persistent volume claim is a k8s object used by applications to claim the persistent volume 10:20 persistent volume claim is then used in the pod specification under the volumes: attribute While persistent volumes are available in all namespaces, persistent volume claim must be in the same namespace as the pod using it 11:30 volume is mounted into the pod and also into the container in the pod that wants to use it 13:45 configmap and secret volume types 17:15 storage class

[@sathishdarshanala6137]

thanks

[@DazRomance]

This is the second time I get to warch one of your k8s subject explanations and I am very impressed. The structure of the explanation is very well made. It always seem to build all the necessary "conceptual blocks" in advance and then creates a big picture out of it. How often have I read or watched tutorials that were just missing one or two crucial bits of info to make things truly clear ? Your work nails all these details every time, amazing ! It may not be how every one likes things being explained to them, but it really does it for me. Congrats and keep up the great work !

[@anirbandutta1371]

This was one of the best 20 mins I have ever spent learning something. Very clear explanation with visuals. Thanks :)

[@colinrickels201]

Once again, youve taken a concept that I have been struggling with and entirely cleared it up. Not just that though, you've provided a visual representation that will stick around every time i approach this topic. If only kubernetes made such visual effort in their docs.

[@servidortnlog2574]

It's just amazing how you're able to explain everything that i need to know about this subject so well. Thank you so much, congrats for the great content

[@quangtungluu8011]

This video is so great. Your explanation is totally on the point. The hard part is understanding the relationship among these components and having a general view of what they do, when to use and why we need them, your job is excellent in doing so.

[@sylvia-liu]

Thank you, Nana!! Your videos have helped me a lot in learning k8s. I keep watching these videos over and over again and it gradually makes sense when using them on my job.

[@qwazzmotto6045]

Being a Dyslexic and a visual person, these video's are invaluable to me. It would take 10 times longer to learn this if I had to actually read the manual from start to end. Thank you so much for doing this, it mean more to me then you will know.

[@prasadpvsv5165]

Your a great trainer , never explained this much deeper on PV , PVC , and storage class

[@leonardocalcagno5031]

Nana, you are the best teacher for devops and cloud engineer in youtube! Thanks so much!

love all the simple explanation! Your videos and courses are a bliss to watch !! Never stop creating them. We all need you Nana :)

[@anbesh7]

Pv, pvc and storage class never seen any where explained this much neat and clearly 10000 thanks to nana…keep taught us

[@shk234]

You describe complex things amazingly well, thankyou

[@santalucifer1169]

Freshly joined a team working on a project with k8s and found this channel greatly deciphers the mysterious YAMLs in the codebase!

[@DiegoMorandiniDMM]

Great job, Nana! Finally I could understand persistent volumes. Thank you.

[@sunils5834]

one of the best videos ever. helped me to understand the concepts efficiently. Thank you for sharing!!

Really happy to hear! Appreciate your words 😊

[@TheRedDaren]

Loved the sleek diagrams and animations. Even better explanation to top it off. Thanks.

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Thanks, happy to hear you liked it :D

[@srahul842002]

Fantastic, the way you explain in such a simple way is really helping a lot to understand each topic completely. And sharing such a well created video free is really the best thing happened for k8s professionals like us.

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Thank you so much Rahul for your positive feedback 😊

[@TerminalFIN]

Thank you so much for sharing this! I am diving into the wonderful world of containers and container orchestration right now and this is helping out tremendously. Did you happen to produce the other videos for storage yet, specifically NFS? I looked through your list of videos and didn't see them. Either way, thanks again and I plan to go through your 3 and 4-hour courses over the next few days.

[@badandboujeee]

Really well done. This has been a slippery concept for me for a while, but this was well-articulated.

[@hemilpatel925]

Simple, fantastic, and up to the point. Thank you

[@MaheshSankhala]

Thanks Nana for such a beautiful explanation of Volumes in K8.

[@robertscott5535]

Rockstar Alert!!! You killed it! Thank you for making the content clear and concise!

[@johnellwood8872]

Excellent video, thanks Nana - you explain how and for me, most importantly why there are so many abstraction layers/object types for k8s storage.

[@icherif_gn]

Well Done 👍🏽 ... You explained things in this video clearly ... I’ll be checking out more of your videos going forward

[@SERV007]

Great video! Data management is probably the biggest challenge in microservice driven architectures which are often implemented in k8s infrastructures. Volumes remaining "synched" with the orchestrator scheduler specially for DBs seems like a tabu for many instructors out there while in this video your just "grab the bull by its horns". Looking forward for those demos thank you.

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Thank you so much 🙏Really appreciate it. You're absolutely right. Persistence with containers, is a challenging topic. I have discussed with some k8s engineers that have said they refuse to deploy any stateful application in k8s cluster. So what they do is create Deployments in k8s and host Databases outside the cluster the traditional way. I think there are advantages and disadvantages for both cases. I will try to cover these in the demo videos. Thanks again for your comment!

[@engalibadouin5222]

Nana, You are fantastic and very simple thank you.

[@seyedmohammadhosseini5793]

Pretty useful configuration examples...really helped!👍🏿👍🏿

[@UltimateKeyboardHero]

This video is awesome, and I understood a lot more about pv pvc and sc. Now I have a little map in my head, but I still need a lot more knowledge on this topic. Like the cloud provider I'm using doesn't have a sc provisioner. And I've been trying to bind the pod to a manually created volume for 3 days now. xD

[@milad8030]

Thank you Nana, you explain clearlly and very fine. I have a question about expansion of pv that is already mounted to a pod. is it possible to expand a pv in case the pod needs more space ?

[@georgebenjamin6632]

Awesome explanation!

[@gv.ramana]

Clear clean explanation. your presentations simply awesome. i can understand how much efforts your put for presentations. keep it good stuff.

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Thank you so much 🤗 Appreciate your feedback! Yes I try to make a lot of animations to help better understand the topic.

[@vempasiddhartha]

Very much impressed Nana with your explanation. I sincerely request you to make more and more videos on k8s covering all of its topics along with real time use cases by showing their practical implementation right from scratch.

[@TechWorldwithNana]

Thanks Vempa! Glad you like it, will make many more videos on K8s but will take time to do so :)

[@ceramicfish4934]

Thanks for this great video. I finally understand kubernetes.
