ABSTRACT OF THE TALK

Modern web applications are typically comprised of multiple services which utilize storage in a variety of ways. Utilizing storage in Kubernetes introduces challenges that are not obvious while developing locally. We’ll introduce these challenges and show good and bad ways to handle them. We’ll dive into the details of an application along with its deployment in Kubernetes to understand why certain storage patterns are problematic and how they can be modified to behave well in a Kubernetes-based deployment.
