Longhorn is a distributed block storage system for Kubernetes that provides space efficiency, backup and restore, encryption, and volume replication. It also has a new feature called strict local that allows for application-level replication instead of block-level replication.

  • Longhorn has a new feature called strict local that allows for application-level replication instead of block-level replication.
  • Longhorn provides encryption based on the Kubernetes secret resource to encrypt volumes.
  • Longhorn has a recurring job mechanism for snapshot deletion and cleanup to save space.
  • Longhorn has a checksum capability for data integrity and a replica placement strategy for data loss prevention.

Kubernetes SIG Storage is responsible for ensuring that different types of file and block storage are available wherever a container is scheduled, storage capacity management (container ephemeral storage usage, volume resizing, etc.), influencing scheduling of containers based on storage (data gravity, availability, etc.), and generic operations on storage (snapshotting, etc.). In this session, we will deep dive into some projects that SIG Storage is currently working on, provide an update on the current status, and discuss what might be coming in the future.

Overview of features planned for release in Kubernetes 1.25 and how to get involved in contributing to the project
  • Features targeting GA in 1.25 include CSI Ethmoid volume and local Ethmoid storage capacity isolation
  • Features targeting beta in 1.25 include season warning health, recovering from resize failures, and non-graceful node shutdown
  • Features targeting alpha in 1.25 include Cozy, secure Linux relabeling with mount options, and volume snapshot namespace transfer
  • Design and prototyping of features such as change block tracking and runtime assisted mounting of persistent volumes
  • Ways to get involved in contributing to the project include attending bi-weekly meetings, joining the mailing list, and participating in Slack channels

This conference presentation discusses the various storage systems available to Kubernetes and provides tools to evaluate which system to use based on factors such as performance, reliability, sustainability, and cost.
  • Storage is a complex topic in Kubernetes
  • There are many storage systems available to Kubernetes
  • Evaluating which system to use depends on factors such as performance, reliability, sustainability, and cost
  • Tools are provided to help make the choice
  • An anecdote about a bidding war in a storage unit is used to introduce the topic

The conference presentation discusses two major projects in the SIG Storage group: CSI migration and CSI Windows. The former is a feature that allows the use of external cloud providers for persistent volumes, while the latter is a plugin that enables the use of Windows-based storage systems in Kubernetes. The presentation also highlights the group's ongoing efforts to protect objects from accidental deletion and the need for new contributors to join their projects.
