If you often need to copy files from Kubernetes to work with them locally — this tool might come handy.
pv-mounter is a simple solution to mount Kubernetes PVs (Persistent Volumes) locally using SSHFS. It was born to automate the author’s need to copy files from his K8s cluster at home. Here’s what pv-mounter does:
- Creates a Pod with an SSH daemon, binds it to the existing PVC, creates a port-forward, and mounts the volume locally via SSHFS.
- Supports RWX and RWO volumes. If the RWO volume is mounted already, an ephemeral container and a reverse SSH tunnel are used.
- Comes with security in mind by using temporary SSH keys and minimal privileges for Pods.

As many are aware, MinIO has recently gone to "maintenance mode.” If you’ve been looking for a Kubernetes-friendly alternative, check out this new project.
Garage, an S3-compatible distributed object storage, just got an unofficial Kubernetes operator. Still being in its alpha, it simplifies deploying and maintaining Garage clusters with the following features implemented:
- Deploying StatefulSets with proper configuration, storage, and networking;
- Bucket creation with quotas;
- S3 key management with automatic credential generation;
- Multi-cluster federation by connecting Garage clusters across K8s instances.

Interested in seeing the contents of your container images without running them? Check out this new tool.
cek (container exploration kit) is a CLI tool for exploring the OCI images filesystem. Unlike Skopeo, it works with the container itself (rather than the container registry), i.e. it can read images directly from Docker, Podman, or containerd in addition to pulling them from remote registries. cek allows you to:
- list files in your image and display the directory tree structure;
- read file contents;
- inspect image metadata;
- export images to tar files.
