An API object that represents a piece of storage in the cluster. Available as a general, pluggable resource that persists beyond the lifecycle of any individual {% glossary_tooltip text="Pod" term_id="pod" %}.

long-description: |
|
|
PersistentVolumes (PVs) provide an API that abstracts details of how storage is provided from how it is consumed.
|
|
PVs are used directly in scenarios where storage can be created ahead of time (static provisioning).
|
|
For scenarios that require on-demand storage (dynamic provisioning), PersistentVolumeClaims (PVCs) are used instead.
