Why OpenEBS 3.0 for Kubernetes and Storage?

• openebs

  7 8,632 6.9

  Most popular & widely deployed Open Source Container Native Storage platform for Stateful Persistent Applications on Kubernetes.

  

We are grateful for the support and contributions of the vibrant open-source community that OpenEBS has received. We are also thankful to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) for including OpenEBS as one of its storage projects. And a special thanks to the CNCF for being a reference user of OpenEBS as well - you can read about their experience and that of others including TikTok / ByteDance and Verizon / Yahoo on Adopters.md. Collectively, these aspects have helped my team to notice challenges and opportunities and of course to resolve bugs and improve the polish of OpenEBS with each release.
