CNDM Day EU 2021: Container Object Storage Interface: Bringing Object Storage to Kubernetes
Speakers:
Krish Chowdhary, Software Engineer, Red Hat
Siddhartha Mani, Software Engineer, MinIO
Kubernetes Container Object Storage Interface (COSI) is on the brink of graduating to alpha status. Currently under active development to become alpha by v1.22. The project is currently backed by Google, RedHat, MinIO, Scality, IBM, and many others.
COSI aims to bring native support for provisioning object storage to containerized workloads running in Kubernetes. This comes with the promise of portability across infrastructure providers to prevent vendor lock-in while still having an easy user experience to create buckets and manage their lifecycle.
As COSI progresses towards becoming mainstream in Kubernetes, we take this opportunity to present the underlying architecture of COSI, along with the benefits it will bring to storage vendors and application developers. The talk will conclude with a demonstration of the COSI workflow.
