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.

Features

  • Enterprise-grade distributed storage without a single point of failure
  • Incremental and recurring snapshot and backup
  • Backup to secondary storage (NFSv4 or S3-compatible object storage) built on efficient change block detection
  • Automated and non-disruptive upgrade
  • Intuitive GUI dashboard
  • 100% open source
