Humanitec, a platform used to build Internal Developer Platforms, has announced the general availability of Persistent Volumes, simplifying the process of using volumes in Kubernetes for developers and ops teams alike by taking care of Persistent Volume Claims. The volume resource is defined similarly to provisioning other resources such as databases or S3 buckets, allowing easy management of different environments with varying volumes and sharing of volumes across environments. This enables developers to focus on writing code without worrying about volume dependencies, while ops teams can ensure data stays in the intended environment.
