TopoLVM is a capacity-aware CSI (Container Storage Interface) plugin for Kubernetes that provisions persistent volumes using LVM2 on Linux nodes. It implements local persistent volumes with dynamic provisioning, topology-aware scheduling, raw block volumes, volume expansion, and Prometheus metrics.

Use cases

  • provision local persistent volumes on kubernetes nodes with lvm
  • dynamically create pvcs backed by lvm logical volumes
  • schedule pods to nodes with the most free storage capacity
  • expose raw block devices to containers in kubernetes
  • expand persistent volumes without downtime
  • export volume usage metrics to prometheus
  • run stateful workloads with local storage on bare metal kubernetes

When to choose

  • you run kubernetes on bare metal or VMs with LVM2-managed local disks
  • you need dynamic provisioning of local persistent volumes with topology awareness
  • you want capacity-aware pod scheduling based on remaining storage
  • you need raw block volumes or volume expansion on local storage

When to avoid

  • you need shared or replicated storage across nodes rather than node-local volumes
  • your cluster runs on non-Linux nodes or hosts without LVM2
  • you want cloud-managed storage like EBS or Persistent Disk instead of local disks
