Features and Roadmap

This Roadmap provides information about local-storage releases, as well as feature tracking.

Use Cases

HwameiStor provisions two kind of local volumes, LVM and Disk. As a component of HwameiStor, Local Storage provisions two types of local LVM volumes, HA and non-HA.

For the non-HA local LVM volume, it's the best data persistent solution for the following use cases:

  • Database with HA capability, such as MongoDB, etc..
  • Messaging system with HA capability, such as Kafka, RabbitMQ, etc..
  • Key-value store with HA capability, such as Redis, etc..
  • Others with HA capability

For the HA local LVM volume, it's the best data persistent solution for the following use cases:

  • Database, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL etc..
  • Other applications which requires the data HA feature.

Usage With Helm Chart

Local Storage must work with Local Disk Manager module. It's suggested to install by helm-charts

Usage With Independent Installation

Developer can start using local-storage With independent-installation, This is for developing or test, and will deploy local-storage from github repo. Please install the Local Disk Manager firstly.

Glossary

  • LocalDisk LDM abstracts disk resources into objects in k8s. A LocalDisk (LD) resource object represents the disk resources on the host..
  • LocalDiskClaim The way to use disk, users can add a description of the disk to select the disk to be used..
  • LocalVolume LocalVolume is a logical concept in the system, with control node management..
  • LocalVolumeReplica The LocalVolumeReplica resource is created by a control node when creating or updating the Volume.The LocalVolumeReplica is assigned to the specified node that creates / manages the local storage (e.g. LV) based on its content, and maintains it in real-time..
  • LocalStorageNode Each node should create its own Node CRD resource and proactively maintain and update relevant information..
