+###  Stateful Set
+
+vSphere volumes can be consumed by Stateful Sets.
+
+  1. Create a storage class that will be used by the ```volumeClaimTemplates``` of a Stateful Set.
+
+      See example:
+
+      ```yaml
+      kind: StorageClass
+      apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1beta1
+      metadata:
+        name: thin-disk
+      provisioner: kubernetes.io/vsphere-volume
+      parameters:
+          diskformat: thin
       ```
 
+      [Download example](simple-storageclass.yaml)
+
+  2. Create a Stateful set that consumes storage from the Storage Class created.
+
+     See example:
+     ```yaml
+     ---
+     apiVersion: v1
+     kind: Service
+     metadata:
+       name: nginx
+       labels:
+         app: nginx
+     spec:
+       ports:
+       - port: 80
+         name: web
+       clusterIP: None
+       selector:
+         app: nginx
+     ---
+     apiVersion: apps/v1beta1
+     kind: StatefulSet
+     metadata:
+       name: web
+     spec:
+       serviceName: "nginx"
+       replicas: 14
+       template:
+         metadata:
+           labels:
+             app: nginx
+         spec:
+           containers:
+           - name: nginx
+             image: gcr.io/google_containers/nginx-slim:0.8
+             ports:
+             - containerPort: 80
+               name: web
+             volumeMounts:
+             - name: www
+               mountPath: /usr/share/nginx/html
+       volumeClaimTemplates:
+       - metadata:
+           name: www
+           annotations:
+             volume.beta.kubernetes.io/storage-class: thin-disk
+         spec:
+           accessModes: [ "ReadWriteOnce" ]
+           resources:
+             requests:
+               storage: 1Gi
+     ```
+     This will create Persistent Volume Claims for each replica and provision a volume for each claim if an existing volume could be bound to the claim.
