Docs Self-Managed Manage Kubernetes Tiered Storage This is documentation for Self-Managed v25.2. To view the latest available version of the docs, see v25.3. Tiered Storage in Kubernetes With Tiered Storage, your cluster consists of two storage tiers, local and remote (using object storage with a cloud provider). Tiered Storage helps to lower storage costs by offloading log segments to object storage. Tiered Storage also provides simple data archiving that you can use for data recovery. Tiered Storage enables fast commission and decommission, remote read replicas, single topic recovery, and whole cluster restore, ensuring high availability of your Redpanda cluster. Use Tiered Storage in Kubernetes Configure your Redpanda cluster to offload log segments to object storage and save storage costs. Fast Commission and Decommission Brokers in Kubernetes Configure fast partition movement during cluster resize for high availability. Remote Read Replicas in Kubernetes Learn how to create a Remote Read Replica topic, which is a read-only topic that mirrors a topic on a different cluster. Topic Recovery in Kubernetes Restore a single topic from object storage. Whole Cluster Restore for Disaster Recovery in Kubernetes Restore a failed cluster, including its metadata.
