Day 36: Harnessing Kubernetes Persistent Volumes - Ensuring Data Stability 📂🚀

Welcome back to the #90DaysDevOpsChallenge! Today, we explore the vital realm of Kubernetes Persistent Volumes, fortifying your applications' data stability.

📂 Understanding Kubernetes Persistent Volumes:

In the dynamic landscape of Kubernetes, ensuring the stability and accessibility of your data is paramount. Persistent Volumes provide a robust solution, offering a dedicated piece of storage that transcends the ephemeral nature of Pods.

🛠️ Today's Hands-On Tasks:

🚀 Task 1: Integrating a Persistent Volume

1. Create a Persistent Volume (PV): Define a Persistent Volume to anchor your application's data.

   

   

2. Create a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC): Claim the previously defined Persistent Volume.

   

3. Update Deployment: Infuse your deployment configuration to utilize the Persistent Volume.

4. Apply Changes: Execute kubectl apply -f deployment.yml to implement the updated deployment.

   

💾 Task 2: Accessing Data in the Persistent Volume

1. Connect to a Pod: Establish a connection to a Pod within your deployment using kubectl exec -it -- /bin/bash

   

2. Verify Access: Confirm seamless access to the data stored in the Persistent Volume from within the Pod.

🔍 Verification:

1. Check Deployment Status: Monitor the deployment's status using kubectl get deployments.

2. Verify PV & PVC: Confirm the creation and binding of the Persistent Volume and Persistent Volume Claim using kubectl get pv and kubectl get pvc.

🌐 Data Stability Unleashed: Empower your applications with persistent and stable data storage, ensuring resilience in the dynamic Kubernetes landscape.

Practical Implementation: Below are the snapshot of the practical implementation for Tasks 1 and 2.
