Som,  
basic provisioning of block and file storage, delivering the storage portion of your builds.

There is also snapshot and test dev delivery, you can provide copies of databases and applications on persistent high performing storage.

Some people create classes of storage and offer this as a service through repeatable playbooks that cut the time to provision.

Hope this helps.
