On: Why is Kubernetes getting so popular?

Network storage, NFS or other, is never optimal for DB storage. It can and is used, but it’s never going to be as good as local storage.

I had forgotten about local storage; it’s not something we can use in our environment.

It’s a moot point, in either case. Vitess doesn’t rely on persistent storage, it relies on replicas and backups.
