Storage classes describe different kinds or classes of storage to use with different services, service levels or backup policies….

I think they describe primary persistent storage, but I am not completely sure about that. Perhaps there are classes for ephemeral storage, too.

In addition to what @JMeixner, a Kubernetes StorageClass enables you to dynamically provision persistent volumes (PV) in a Kubernetes cluster. Kubernetes administrators define classes of storage, and then pods can dynamically request the specific type of storage they need
