# AKS Storage
## Storage classes
AKS Automatic provides several built-in storage classes:
| Class | Backend | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| `managed-csi` | Azure Disk (LRS) | General single-node RWO |
| `managed-csi-premium` | Azure Disk (Premium SSD) | IOPS-sensitive workloads |
| `azurefile-csi` | Azure Files (SMB) | Shared RWX across nodes |
| `azurefile-csi-premium` | Azure Files (Premium) | High-throughput shared storage |
## Persistent Volume Claims
```yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: my-data
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
storageClassName: managed-csi-premium
resources:
requests:
storage: 32Gi
```
## hostPath volumes
**`hostPath` volumes are prohibited** by AKS safeguards and the Restricted pod security standard. Use PVCs instead.
## Backup
Use **Azure Backup for AKS** to protect persistent volumes. Enable in the cluster settings with a backup vault linked to the same resource group.
## StatefulSet storage
For StatefulSets, use `volumeClaimTemplates` — Kubernetes creates one PVC per replica automatically:
```yaml
volumeClaimTemplates:
- metadata:
name: data
spec:
accessModes: ["ReadWriteOnce"]
storageClassName: managed-csi-premium
resources:
requests:
storage: 10Gi
```
