Piraeus - Local Persistent Volume Dynamic Provisioning, Management and HA

Explore dynamic provisioning, resource management, and high availability for Local Persistent Volumes in Kubernetes with this informative conference talk. Delve into Piraeus, an open-source project co-founded by LINBIT and DaoCloud, designed to enhance the capabilities of Local Persistent Volumes. Learn how Piraeus pods, deployed as a daemonset, organize various local storage resources and dynamically provision them based on user-controlled policies. Discover how Piraeus addresses the single point of failure in Local Persistent Volumes by integrating DRBD for synchronous data replication, enabling failover to another Local Persistent Volume during pod rescheduling. Gain insights into Piraeus CLIs, which are aggregated into kubectl through CRDs, providing a seamless user experience for Kubernetes administrators. Understand how Piraeus resource management reports capacity and usage statistics on each node and sends alerts when space is running low. This 36-minute presentation by Philipp Reisner from LINBIT and Hongchao Zheng from DaoCloud offers valuable knowledge for those interested in improving storage management in Kubernetes environments.
