Scality Container Storage Interface S3 Driver Documentation
The Scality S3 Container Storage Interface (CSI) Driver allows Kubernetes applications to access Scality S3 objects through a file system interface. This driver is a fork of the Mountpoint for Amazon S3 CSI Driver. It has been engineered and optimized specifically for use with Scality S3-compatible storage solutions.
Scality CSI driver presents an S3 bucket as a storage volume accessible by containers in Kubernetes clusters using Mountpoint for Amazon S3. It implements the CSI specification for container orchestrators to manage storage volumes.
Key Features
- Static Provisioning Only: Integrate existing S3 buckets as persistent storage in Kubernetes. Dynamic provisioning is not supported.
- Familiar File Access: Access S3 objects as files and directories, simplifying application integration.
- Customizable Mounts: Fine-tune volume mounts with a variety of supported options for performance and behavior.
- Scality Integration: Optimized for Scality S3 storage solutions like Scality RING.
