Stateful Applications in Kubernetes: It Pays to Plan AheadCategory: Database, Data, Kubernetes, Infrastructure, automation
Lincoln knew not to neglect the time and effort to perform due diligence before starting any project, whether that’s chopping down a tree or developing a stateful application.
When developing stateful applications, those elements are your Kubernetes implementation, modules, libraries, plugins and solutions being used to support applications in production.
Just like your network plugin, you need a storage plugin to enable a stateful application like your hypothetical database to function properly in Kubernetes.
The need for a storage plugin only emerged later once you started to test your application in its acceptance environment.
