VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS)
Choosing the Right Kubernetes Migration Path to VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service
Migration to VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service is the #1 customer priority — and for too long, it was the #1 blocker. This post turns that blocker into a validated playbook. We break down four real-world migration situations, each mapped to a tested path: zero-copy FCD adoption for vSphere CSI sources, pv-migrate data-copy for non-vSphere CSI on vSphere, Velero + S3 for fully off-vSphere clusters, and vMotion for VKS-to-VKS moves. Whether your persistent volumes live on a vSphere FCD or an NFS share, you will know exactly which path to take, what downtime to expect, and how to roll back safely.
