Kubernetes Storage Simplified
OpenEBS helps Developers and Platform SREs easily deploy Kubernetes Stateful Workloads that require fast and highly reliable Container Native Storage. OpenEBS turns any storage available on the Kubernetes worker nodes into local or distributed Kubernetes Persistent Volumes.
Why should you use OpenEBS?
Multi Cloud Storage
Automated provisioning and storage replication across pods is challenging. OpenEBS makes complex cross-cloud stateful application storage easy.
Kubernetes Native Storage
OpenEBS operates exclusively in userspace, eliminating the need for Linux kernel-dependent software and simplifying the processes of deployment and maintenance.
Open Source
One of the largest Open Source Kubernetes storage projects with a large user base.
Installation is as easy as …
helm install openebs --namespace openebs openebs/openebs --create-namespace
Key features
Container Storage
Storage that follows your workloads, adding agility and flexibility to your K8s apps.
Granular Control
Every workload has its own dynamic container based storage with any controls you need.
No Vendor Lock-in
100% Open Source so you will never find your critical data locked into expensive contracts.
Save Money on Storage
Thin provisioning and ephemeral storage let you allocate storage on demand and spend less on cloud storage.
Backups and more
Move your workloads and storage from dev to production, all powered by OpenEBS.
Run Anywhere
Your K8s app can run on any Cloud or On-premise and improve resilience across many availability zones.
Who loves OpenEBS?
I use OpenEBS ZFS Local PV to provision various game servers and I have been evaluating OpenEBS and its CSI capabilities.

Home cluster mix of Arm and Intel i3 based.
2x Intel NUC (i3).
3x Raspberry pi (4GB memory).
1x NAS/Custom build machine.
ByteDance
The dynamic provisioning feature is great in our use case, as we save lots of time on setup and maintain storage disk, in ES cluster.
CLEW Medical
Easy to setup, stable, excellent support, active project.
CNCF, The Linux Foundation
Using OpenEBS for Kafka implementations (Confluent as well as Strimzi) on bare-metal Kubernetes clusters. For most of the statefulsets on bare-metal environments, we are using OpenEBS.
OpenEBS has been very helpful and reliable. We are happy with the support and commitment provided by the community to resolve the issues reported in a timely manner.
helm install openebs --namespace openebs openebs/openebs --create-namespace
Copy and execute the following command on your Kubernetes cluster to install OpenEBS.
