Abstract:
Implementing a base set of data storage features for containers across multiple cloud computing environments. A container specification analyzer receives a container specification that identifies a container to be initiated, a volume to be mounted, and a native device driver to communicate with to facilitate mounting the volume. The container specification analyzer changes the container specification to generate an updated container specification that identifies a pass-through device driver to communicate with in lieu of the native device driver and identifies pass-through device driver data that identifies a data storage feature to be performed on data destined for the native device driver. The container specification analyzer returns the updated container specification for processing by a container initiator.
