sambaXP 2023: SINK – Does it still float?
sambaXP Talk by Michael Adam (IBM / Samba Team) and John Mulligan (IBM).
Abstract:
At sambaXP 2020, the samba-in-kubernetes project (aka “SINK”) was introduced, which aims at running Samba in containers to offer SMB shares in Kubernetes. In 2021 and 2022, Michael Adam and John Mulligan presented progress updates on these efforts, on samba-operator, samba-container & friends.
This year, they gave a similar general progress report on their projects. They discussed some of the new challenges that have appeared as their corner of the overall Samba community grows. One way they have tried to expand their reach is to frequently emphasize that many of their component projects are not just restricted to a Kubernetes environment. So, they took a look at some of the other container engines and orchestration platforms one can run on and demonstrated that –despite its name– the SINK organization is not all Kubernetes.
