Cloud Native Short Take - Understanding Persistent Volume & Persistent Volume Claim Matching

RX-M LLC · Intermediate ·☁️ DevOps & Cloud ·2y ago

About this lesson

In this RX-M Cloud Native Short Take, Christian Lacsina explains the matching behavior of resources in the Kubernetes Persistent Volume (PV) subsystem. He demonstrates how a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC) interacts with a Persistent Volume object in a Kubernetes cluster. The PV subsystem abstracts storage requirements for applications, making it easier for developers to request storage without concerning themselves with specific implementation details. Christian demonstrates how to create a PVC and PV and how they automatically bind if their capacities and access modes match. He also discusses using labels and storage class names to control the matching process. Viewers are encouraged to explore Kubernetes training courses at rx-m.com for more in-depth learning. 0:00 Introduction 0:19 Objectives 0:24 Refresher 1:07 Persistent Volume Claims 1:50 Persistent Volumes 2:54 Demonstration 4:40 Matching 5:46 Filtering PVs with Labels 6:26 Storage Class Names 7:33 Course Ware Builder
