Cloud Native Storage is a solution that provides comprehensive data management for stateful applications. When you use Cloud Native Storage, you can create the containerized stateful applications capable of surviving restarts and outages. Stateful containers leverage storage exposed by vSphere while using such primitives as standard volume, persistent volume, and dynamic provisioning.
With Cloud Native Storage, you can create persistent container volumes independent of virtual machine and container life cycle. vSphere storage backs the volumes, and you can set a storage policy directly on the volumes. After you create the volumes, you can review them and their backing virtual disks in the vSphere Client, and monitor their storage policy compliance.
