Answer
It defines dynamic provisioning of volumes using provisioners and parameters.
Quick Answer
StorageClass defines how to dynamically provision PersistentVolumes on demand.

Without StorageClass, admins must manually pre-provision PVs — dynamic provisioning via StorageClass is the modern approach.
