2 min read

A PersistentVolume is the abstract representation of storage as a resource within a Kubernetes cluster. The attributes describe the storage resource, it's underlying resource can either be a disk provisioned by the cloud you are using or something as simple as manually provisioned NFS disk

On PersistentVolumes we can configure several reclaim policies to define how it's data removal is handled once the PersistentVolume object is deleted.
