Implementations of the disclosure provide for size adjustable volumes for containers. A method of the disclosure includes determining, by a processing device of a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) system, a size limitation of a container, where the size limitation is associated with disk space usage of a storage volume group. The amount of disk space used by applications of the container is monitored in view of the size limitation of the container. Responsive to determining that the amount of the disk space used by the applications of the container satisfies a threshold, a storage volume of the storage volume group is allocated to the container in view of the size limitation of the container.

Size adjustable volumes for containers

Implementations of the disclosure provide for size adjustable volumes for containers. A method of the disclosure includes determining, by a processing device of the PaaS system, a size used space in a storage volume with respect to a container associated with an execution of an application. The size is a summation of current usage of disk space for the storage volume by the application. This size of the used space is compared to a threshold size. The threshold size indicates a determined amount of the storage volume allocated to the container. Responsive to the size meeting the threshold size, an increase in the allocated amount of the storage volume associated with the container is regulated by the processing device.
