Learn Kubernetes persistent storage with PVs, PVCs, StorageClasses, reclaim policies, snapshots, and backup decisions for reliable stateful workloads.
Learn Kubernetes networking and storage architecture: Pods, Services, VPCs, ingress, PersistentVolumes, StorageClasses, policies, and recovery boundaries.
Learn where S3-compatible object storage fits for uploads, backups, assets, archives, and app data, plus when a VM disk or block volume is the better fit.
Learn when SaaS app uploads should stay on VM disk or move to object storage, with guidance on durability, security, scaling, migration, and Raff pricing.
Compare Restic vs Borg vs Rsync for cloud server backups, including S3 storage, SSH repositories, encryption, retention, migrations, and restore fit.
Learn when to add a block storage volume instead of resizing a VM disk, and how to choose between VM disk, volumes, and object storage.
Learn database storage on block volumes, including disk layout, IOPS and latency monitoring, capacity planning, backups, and recovery decisions.
Understand when block storage volumes fit databases, containers, and application data, including sizing, backups, recovery, and when object storage is better.

Understand S3 lifecycle policy decisions for object retention, versioning, expiration, cleanup, backup archives, and S3-compatible storage cost control.
Learn S3 bucket security for credentials, policies, private access, presigned URLs, logging, recovery, and S3-compatible object storage boundaries.
Learn how to evaluate VM disk storage for production apps, including capacity planning, local storage benefits, failure risks, and when to use other storage layers.
Compare object storage, block storage, and VM disk by access model, workload fit, scaling, and recovery needs to choose the right cloud storage layer.
Learn how to design production app storage and recovery with VM disks, volumes, object storage, backups, and restore testing.
