Pluggable Storage Backends
A documented decision guide matches fleet size to a storage backend — local-nvme, Nest, Longhorn, Ceph, iSCSI, or NFS.
- Nest and Longhorn deploy as Biomes (nest-agent, longhorn-agent) alongside Kubernetes workers; Ceph, iSCSI, and NFS integrate as external backends.
- Fleet-size guidance: 3–5 nodes favors Nest, 5–20 nodes favors Longhorn, 20+ nodes favors Ceph.
- gough storage status and kubectl get storageclasses report current backend health.
