Blog: Kubernetes 1.24: Volume Populators Graduate to Beta


Recommended Posts

Author: Ben Swartzlander (NetApp)

The volume populators feature is now two releases old and entering beta! The AnyVolumeDataSouce feature gate defaults to enabled in Kubernetes v1.24, which means that users can specify any custom resource as the data source of a PVC.

An earlier blog article detailed how the volume populators feature works. In short, a cluster administrator can install a CRD and associated populator controller in the cluster, and any user who can create instances of the CR can create pre-populated volumes by taking advantage of the populator.

Multiple populators can be installed side by side for different purposes. The SIG storage community is already seeing some implementations in public, and more prototypes should appear soon.

Cluster administrations are strongly encouraged to install the volume-data-source-validator controller and associated VolumePopulator CRD before installing any populators so that users can get feedback about invalid PVC data sources.
