Azure Container Storage v2.0.0: NVMe Boosts Kubernetes
⚡ Azure today released Azure Container Storage v2.0.0, a performance-first update that delivers up to 7× higher IOPS, 4× lower latency, and improved resource efficiency for Kubernetes stateful workloads. The release adds built-in support for local NVMe drives, removes prior pricing tiers for large pools, and is available as an open-source local CSI driver for non-AKS clusters. Optimized for storage- and GPU-optimized VM families, the update also enables single-node deployments and integrates with KAITO to speed AI model loading and scaling.
