iSCSI LUNs provide block storage services exposed over an IP network, usable as local disks by physical or virtual servers. This type of storage is designed for applications that require direct filesystem control and high performance, such as databases, containerized environments, Kubernetes clusters, and data-intensive applications. LUNs are dedicated and isolated for each project or service, allowing customized configurations in terms of performance and resilience.
Key features include:
- Dedicated and isolated volumes for individual projects
- High reliability with support for replication and disaster recovery
- Possibility for advanced configurations (performance, resilience)
