I was wondering how I could dynamically create and then mount new volumes from inside a pod ? At runtime !

I have to download a lot of files with very different sizes and would like the storage to adapt to my needs...

Use case example :
There is a decompression step. But I don't know how much will be decompressed before its completed.
If I could allocate some more memory at runtime It would not end with a DiskFull error...

I can mount an initial volume at pod startup, then either I find a way to update this volume size or at least mount a new one in the same pod !

Any ideas are welcome
Thx

In my opinion, you could create bucket (aws s3 for example) and store your data there (create simple app to make upload), thus, you don’t need to care with disk full error

  • Thx for you answer. The problem with this solution is that I must work on the files before uploading them elsewhere. For instance some of them must be uncompressed. I only use S3 for the final upload when the file is ready but still need some local storage capacity while working on the files.
