You stand up a cluster — <a href="https://falcao.org/posts/rke2-on-prem-kubernetes/">RKE2</a>, K3s, kubeadm, whatever fits the rack — and stateless workloads behave beautifully. Deployments roll, pods reschedule, the control plane self-heals, and for about a week you feel like you&rsquo;ve gotten away with something. Then somebody needs a database. Or a registry. Or Postgres for the internal app that the whole company quietly depends on. And suddenly the question is no longer &ldquo;can Kubernetes schedule this&rdquo; but &ldquo;where does the data actually live, and what happens to it when a node dies at 3 a.m.&rdquo;</p>
