Storing Data in Local Filesystem

Local filesystem storage is intended for persistent data that must remain available throughout the lifecycle of a container but does not need to be shared with other nodes.

Conceptually, it works like a folder created inside a server. In a standard container workflow, data in such a folder may not normally survive every maintenance action. By defining a local volume, however, the platform provides an efficient way to protect important files during operations such as container redeployment.

Main Benefits

Local filesystem storage is simple to control and remains fully available on the local node because its accessibility does not depend on a network connection.

Typical uses include preserving log files that should not be removed and retaining load balancer configuration files so the existing node-linking structure is not lost.

Learn How To

Add Mount Points
