Manila is loosely coupled with other OpenStack components and serves storage over a network rather than via a hypervisor. This positions it well to provide RWX (read-write-many) storage for kubernetes, cloud foundry, mesos and other Container Orchestrators (COs).

The Container Storage Interface (CSI) is a standard for storage to plug in to the various COs. A manila CSI plugin will connect the range of storage back ends developed for Manila in OpenStack with the COs and can do so with or without the rest of OpenStack.

This talk will cover plans for the manila CSI plugin, starting with core CSI operations and NFS and CephFS native protocols, and extending to capabilities like snapshots, volume extension, and topology as well as support for other file system protocols.
