Apart from using the PVCs to take snapshots, the Dell EMC plug-ins for the PowerFlex rack and the PowerFlex appliance provide a broad range of features in the Kubernetes plug-in space. The PowerFlex rack and PowerFlex appliance create a server-based SAN by using PowerFlex with PowerEdge servers. Local server and storage resources are combined to create virtual pools of block storage with varying performance tiers. For more information, see PowerFlex and VxFlex Ready Nodes for Kubernetes. The CSI plug-in for PowerFlex integrated rack and PowerFlex appliance is available from Docker Hub.
