CONFIG & STORAGE

Config and Storage resources are responsible for injecting data into your applications and persisting data externally to your container.

Common resource types:

  • ConfigMaps for providing text key value pairs injected into the application through environment variables, command line arguments, or files
  • Secrets for providing binary data injected into the application through files
  • Volumes for providing a filesystem external to the Container. Maybe shared across Containers within the same Pod and have a lifetime persisting beyond a Container or Pod.
