How to Create a PVC from Azure Files for Use in AKS

-
  Creating a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC) from Azure Files for Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) In this guide, we'll walk through the process of creating a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC) from Azure Files to use with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). This will help you effectively manage storage for your applications. Prerequisites Set Up Azure CLI Azure file share created (in this case: azurestorageaccountname=technexusdevops ) AKS cluster is created (in this case: nginx-cluster ) Steps to Create the PVC 1. Connect to the AKS Cluster Download the cluster credentials to interact with it using kubectl : az aks get-credentials --resource-group 1-c6aa5250-playground-sandbox --name nginx-cluster 2. Create the Secret for Azure File Share Link your file share with Kubernetes using Azure File. First, create a secret to store your Azure Storage account credentials: Create the Secret Run the follow...

Access Modes in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)

-
Access Modes in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) AKS supports four types of access modes: ReadWriteOnce (RWO) ReadWriteMany (RWX) ReadOnlyMany (ROX) ReadWriteOncePod (RWOP) (Kubernetes 1.21 and later) 1. ReadWriteOnce (RWO) A volume with ReadWriteOnce access mode can be mounted as read-write by only one node at a time. Use Case: This is often used for storage directly attached to a single node, such as an Azure Managed Disk or AWS EBS volume , which can only be attached to a single VM (node) at a time. Example: Suppose you have a volume with ReadWriteOnce access mode and you attach it to node1 in an AKS cluster: Pod on Node 1: You can mount this volume in one or more pods running on node1 . These pods can read from and write to the volume as needed. Pod on Node 2: If a pod on node2 tries to mount the same volume, it won’t be able to, as it’s already in use on node1 . Use Case Example For instance, a logging application runni...
