Storage is an essential part of any computing systems. In current Kubernetes, user can utilize storage volume with filesystem in a container but can’t be utilized volume without filesystem called raw block volume. By adding a feature to enable raw block storage directly, for example, user can use the raw block volume for database applications such as MariaDB and this improves I/O performance. In this session, I will explain current activity and feature plan of Block Volumes Support in Kubernetes.
