Disclosed herein are methods, systems, and processes to persist data as information. A logical container is created. The logical container is dynamically defined to correspond to a storage device. Original data or encoded data written by an application container is received. If original data is received, encoded data is generated from original data. If encoded data is received, original data is generated from encoded data. Generating encoded data from original data, and original data from encoded data involves calculating original metadata for original data, and encoded metadata for encoded data. Encoded data or original data along with original metadata and encoded metadata is transported through the logical container past a persistence boundary. In response to transporting past the persistence boundary, a confirmation is received original data has been persisted.
