A Kubernetes dynamic volume provisioner that automatically creates Persistent Volumes on an existing NFS server, placing each volume in a subdirectory named after the namespace, PVC, and PV. It deploys via Helm or Kustomize and is maintained under kubernetes-sigs.

Use cases

  • dynamically provision persistent volumes from an existing nfs server in kubernetes
  • auto-create subdirectories per pvc on nfs storage
  • replace manual pv creation with pvc-based provisioning
  • deploy nfs storage provisioner with helm
  • give stateful workloads shared nfs-backed storage in a cluster

When to choose

  • you already run an NFS server and want dynamic PVC-based provisioning in Kubernetes
  • you want per-claim subdirectories on a shared NFS export
  • you prefer a simple Helm/Kustomize deployment over a full CSI driver

When to avoid

  • you need a full CSI driver with advanced features like snapshots, expansion, or access controls
  • you have no existing NFS server to point at
  • you need block storage or local-disk performance rather than shared network file storage
