The state of the CNCF Storage options has exploded in the past few years, but if you had to choose a project to use today, how would you go about comparing each offering and choosing who to partner with for your future growth?

Civo offers managed Kubernetes clusters powered by K3s to customers around the world. We manage thousands of Virtual Machines and stateful customer data within multiple data centres across several continents. In late 2021, Civo had the opportunity to evaluate the CNCF storage landscape to move to a new technology stack.

Learn about the steps required to evaluate the market, testing vendor claims in the real world and what needs to be considered outside of the purely technological aspects of any product selection.

In late 2021, Civo's Director of Innovation, Dinesh, spoke about the intricacies of migrating between two vendors (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GlUsPnSZI_Y&list=PLHgdNuGxrJt2-xlW_l2q1BAE3e4TsPnQo).
