Today Portworx released its new STorage Orchestrator Runtime for Kubernetes or STORK. According to the company, this new open-source project that takes advantage of the extensibility of Kubernetes to allow DevOps teams to run stateful applications like databases, queues and key-value stores more efficiently on Kubernetes. STORK provides key hyperconvergence, failure-domain awareness, storage health monitoring, and snapshot features for Kubernetes while being delivering through a plugin interface enabling it tow work with any storage driver for Kubernetes.
Containers and the use of Kubernetes are growing at an impressive rate. There are still some issues and limitations to running stateful apps on Kubernetes in production. To help with this, STORK allows stateful applications to take advantage of scheduler extenders. Making sure that STORK can address operational issues, Portworx collaborated with customers that run large scale stateful applications in production.
