Azure Container Storage utilizes existing Azure Storage offerings for actual data storage and offers a volume orchestration and management solution purposely built for containers. You can choose any of the supported backing storage options to create a storage pool for your persistent volumes.

Azure Container Storage offers persistent volume support with ReadWriteOnce access mode to Linux-based [Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)](../../aks/intro-kubernetes.md) clusters. Supported backing storage options include block storage offerings only: Azure Disks, Ephemeral Disks (local NVMe or temp SSD), and Azure Elastic SAN. The following table summarizes the supported storage types, recommended workloads, and provisioning models.

Azure Container Storage offers persistent volume support with ReadWriteOnce access mode to Linux-based [Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)](../../aks/intro-kubernetes.md) clusters. Supported backing storage options include block storage offerings only: Azure Disks, Ephemeral Disks (local NVMe or temp SSD), and Azure Elastic SAN (Preview). The following table summarizes the supported storage types, recommended workloads, and provisioning models.
|**[Azure Elastic SAN](../elastic-san/elastic-san-introduction.md)**| Provision on demand, fully managed resource | General purpose databases, streaming and messaging services, CD/CI environments, and other tier 1/tier 2 workloads. | Azure Elastic SAN | Provisioned on demand per created volume and volume snapshot. Multiple clusters can access a single SAN concurrently, however persistent volumes can only be attached by one consumer at a time. |

|**[Azure Disks](../../virtual-machines/managed-disks-overview.md)**| Granular control of storage SKUs and configurations | Azure Disks are a good fit for tier 1 and general purpose databases such as MySQL, MongoDB, and PostgreSQL. | Premium SSD, Premium SSD v2, Standard SSD, Ultra Disk | Provisioned per target container storage pool size and maximum volume size. |

|**Ephemeral Disk**| Utilizes local storage resources on AKS nodes (NVMe or temp SSD) | Ephemeral disk is extremely latency sensitive (low sub-ms latency), so it's best for applications with no data durability requirement or with built-in data replication support such as Cassandra. | NVMe is available on [storage optimized VM SKUs](../../virtual-machines/sizes-storage.md)| Deployed as part of the VMs hosting an AKS cluster. AKS discovers the available ephemeral storage on AKS nodes and acquires them for volume deployment. |

-**Accelerate VM-to-container initiatives:** Azure Container Storage surfaces the full spectrum of Azure block storage offerings that were previously only available for VMs and makes them available for containers. This includes ephemeral disk that provides extremely low latency for workloads like Cassandra, as well as Azure Elastic SAN that provides native iSCSI and shared provisioned targets.
