Rook: Rook CSI plugin

Created on 8 Jan 2018 · 3Comments · Source: rook/rook

Rook needs to have a CSI plugin. Currently Rook uses a flexvolume plugin to integrate with Kubernetes. New storage features in Kubernetes are being added to support CSI based plugins and not to Flexvolume.

Using CSI will also solve some limitations we have been seeing with flexvolume. Such as https://github.com/rook/rook/issues/1330, https://github.com/rook/rook/issues/1128, https://github.com/rook/rook/issues/1282 and https://github.com/rook/rook/issues/1127.

@rootfs perhaps we can start a design documentation and have it submitted to https://github.com/rook/rook/tree/master/design.

@rootfs Do you have some information you could provide here for me to get started looking into what kind of efforts it would require for us to help out with this?
