Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When containers crash and burn their state away
Persistent Volumes keep your data safe today
Claims are tickets that your pods present
To storage classes with different intent

[Chorus]
PV, PVC, and Storage Class divine
CSI drivers bridge the cloud and on-prem line
StatefulSets keep your order intact
Velero backs it up, that's a fact
Encrypt at rest, protect what's yours
Storage and state, foundation and floors

[Verse 2]
EBS and EFS for Amazon's cloud
Azure Disk spinning data proud
Ceph and Portworx for your datacenter floor
Longhorn runs local, CSI opens the door

[Chorus]
PV, PVC, and Storage Class divine
CSI drivers bridge the cloud and on-prem line
StatefulSets keep your order intact
Velero backs it up, that's a fact
Encrypt at rest, protect what's yours
Storage and state, foundation and floors

[Verse 3]
StatefulSets deploy with numbered names
Pod zero first, then one, orderly games
Stable network identity sticks around
Even when pods crash down to the ground

[Bridge]
etcd snapshots capture cluster state
Application backups seal your data's fate
Provider-managed keys or roll your own
Encryption guards what you've always known

[Chorus]
PV, PVC, and Storage Class divine
CSI drivers bridge the cloud and on-prem line
StatefulSets keep your order intact
Velero backs it up, that's a fact
Encrypt at rest, protect what's yours
Storage and state, foundation and floors

[Outro]
Databases and queues need stable ground
With persistent storage, they're safe and sound
