## What it is
A Kubernetes static provisioner that manages the PersistentVolume lifecycle for pre-allocated local disks on nodes. It discovers local volumes under configured discovery directories, creates PVs for them, and cleans them up when released, without supporting dynamic provisioning.

## Use cases
- provision local persistent volumes in a kubernetes cluster
- manage PV lifecycle for pre-allocated local disks
- expose node-local storage through the PVC interface
- automatically create and clean up PVs for local disks on each node
- schedule pods to nodes with local storage using node affinity

## When to choose
- you have pre-allocated local disks on Kubernetes nodes and want them exposed as PersistentVolumes
- you need low-latency, node-local storage for workloads like databases or caches
- you want automatic PV creation and cleanup for local volumes without manual PV management

## When to avoid
- you need dynamic provisioning of storage on demand
- you need storage that survives node failure or deletion
- you want replicated or network-attached storage rather than node-local disks
