Hi all,

so I have been dabbling in Kubernetes for a while now and we plan to bring it to production beginning next year. The only headache is how to implement databases. So, is it possible to force a pod to run a mysql daemon and have the persistent storage in the same node? Or is it possible to use a daemon with a database storage on bare metal? The goal here is to get maximum networking performance and persistent storage even when the whole cluster goes down. Basically, persistent data seems to be a weak point with Kubernetes.
