""Most business applications require storage. In reality, unless you're converting Fahrenheit to Celsius and back, you're storing something somewhere," says Dan Ciruli, vice-president and general manager for cloud native at Nutanix."
"Containerised applications started out as stateless, or ephemeral. The designers never intended containers to hold persistent data. They expected that microservices or containerised applications would use no non-volatile storage."
Cloud-native applications are now widely adopted, with 82% of enterprises using Kubernetes in production. Transitioning to cloud-native environments requires adapting infrastructure, including compute, networking, and data storage. Legacy applications and virtual machines must also be considered. Containerised applications were initially designed to be stateless, relying on external data stores for persistent data. While this approach offers benefits like easier scaling and application portability, most business applications require persistent data storage.
