| Many cloud providers do not provide persistent volumes that are shared across availability zones, so you may not be able to use a single persistent volume. You may need to use some kind of volume replication technology or a clustered file system. | Provided you do not store and state in containers, you do not have to worry about volume replication across availability zones because each pod has its own copy of the domain.
