Abstract
This chapter demonstrates the nature of highly scalable stateful backing services by taking the reader through the process of implementing a primitive key/value store using the StatefulSet controller. By the end of the chapter, the reader will have an appreciation of why cloud native (managed) data stores offer a nearly unbeatable advantage, and the instrumentation mechanisms that the StatefulSet controller offers should the reader choose to roll out their own data store instead.
