Running large-scale, performance-sensitive distributed databases on K8s requires balancing between latency, reliability, and cost efficiency. At Flipkart, we tackled this challenge by leveraging K8s Local Persistent Volumes (Local PVs) to optimize both performance and infrastructure costs for our stateful workloads.
With a storage footprint of 4PB of directly attached SSDs, 15PB of directly attached HDDs, comprising 1000 K8s stateful nodes spanning across 3 clusters (2 on-prem & 1 on public cloud infrastructure) LocalPV storage currently powers various internal database platforms (Aerospikes, HBase, TiDB) leveraged by critical business applications at Flipkart.
In this talk, we’ll share practical insights from our journey of scaling database infrastructure with Local PVs. We’ll dive into key challenges and solutions, including dynamic provisioning, workload scheduling, and automating maintenance workflows to ensure operational efficiency at scale.
