Streamline Storage on Google GKE

Efficient, high-performance storage built for Google’s managed Kubernetes.

Simplyblock™ enhances GKE with high-speed NVMe storage over TCP, ideal for latency-sensitive services running in multi-zone clusters. Designed to work natively within GKE’s autoscaling and declarative infrastructure model, simplyblock delivers consistent storage performance, simplified provisioning, and better cost control for cloud-native workloads.

GKE

What Simplyblock™ Brings to GKE

fast access

Fast Access from GKE Pods

Deliver NVMe-TCP speed for ML models, real-time data pipelines, and backend services running in GKE with consistent, low-latency storage performance.

Cloud Storage

Efficient Cloud Resources

Reduce cloud costs by using erasure coding in place of full replication, preserving resilience while saving space across multi-zonal GKE clusters.

Native Integration

Responsive to GKE Scaling

Storage expands or shrinks automatically as your GKE node pools scale, with no need for restarts or reconfiguration—great for elastic workloads.

Simplyblock always available

Support for GKE Features

Compatible with Kubernetes CSI, Workload Identity, and regional clusters. Simplyblock fits natively into GKE’s operational and security model.

Powering Google Kubernetes with Simplyblock™

Built for GKE’s Dynamic Architecture and Google Cloud Scale

Performance, Resilience, and Reliability

1. Speed for Stateful GKE Apps
Run data-heavy apps like analytics, AI, and databases with NVMe over TCP—fast, fault-tolerant, and consistent across GKE node pools and regions.


2. Resilience Without Overhead
Avoid triple replication by using erasure coding to protect data across zones, reducing costs while ensuring availability in GKE regional clusters.

Simplicity, Scale, and Integration

3. Unified Storage for GKE Workloads
Manage persistent volumes for all GKE clusters through a single platform, supporting multi-zonal deployments and cloud-native configurations.


4. Elastic Scale on Google Cloud
Grow storage in sync with GKE node autoscaling—no need for manual provisioning or rework when workloads spike or cluster sizes change.

Simplyblock™ for GKE-Driven Platforms

flexibility

Always-On Through Scaling Events

Stay available during node upgrades, zone failovers, and scaling changes—ideal for GKE's rolling updates and dynamic workloads.

speed

Consistent Speed Across Zones

Maintain fast read/write speeds with NVMe over TCP, even in distributed GKE setups spanning multiple zones or regions.

Cloud-Native and GKE-Aligned

Works with standard GKE features—no custom plugins, full CSI support, and seamless operation inside GCP-managed Kubernetes.

Run Anywhere on Google Cloud

Deploy on GKE standard or autopilot, across spot instances, custom node pools, or hybrid clusters with full storage flexibility.
