Longhorn
Cloud-Native distributed block storage for Kubernetes
Historically, adding replicated storage to Kubernetes clusters has always been difficult, thus resulting in many non-cloud-hosted Kubernetes clusters not supporting persistent storage. Longhorn is the solution to this. Longhorn provides highly available, persistent storage for Kubernetes. It is lightweight, simplified, reliable and powerful. It’s easy to deploy and upgrade, cloud-native and best of all, completely free and open source.
Longhorn has built-in incremental snapshot and backup features that ensures the safety of volume data in or out of the Kubernetes cluster. It’s also got an intuitive GUI dashboard that makes it easy to schedule backups of persistent storage volumes in Kubernetes clusters.
