Interestingly, our partner RedHat reported in 2021 that around 80% of deployed workloads are databases or data caches, storing data in persistent volume claims (PVCs). You also decide to run your database for storing user uploads – such as images or videos – directly in Kubernetes. However, you lack insights into your PVCs.
