Today we continue discussing the best practice from storage engineering:
656) Different containerization technologies have proprietary format and semantics for the storage application to use. Of these the most critical aspect of the storage server has been networking because the nodes often scale out and the nodes need to be declared to the containers for proper connectivity. NAS storage is not going away as long as hard drives continue to be nearline storage.
657) These same containerization technologies allow the storage services to be deployed as images. This is very helpful to run the same image across a variety of hosts without having to recompile and build the package.
658) Such an image needs to be built with the help of declared dependencies for the storage service often called custom resources in the containerization parlance and a logic to reconcile the state of the deployment with the intended declarations. This process is often aided by the sdk from the containerization technology.
659) The sdk from containers can also help with the scaffolding code generation for use with the storage service to build and deploy the service as an image. This code is called an operator
660) The operator used to build and deploy the storage server as an image for the container is usually one per product. The flavors of the product and its releases can be detailed in the definitions for the same operator.
