IBM Storage Scale container native

IBM Storage Scale container native allows the deployment of the cluster file system in a Red Hat® OpenShift® cluster. Using a remote mount attached file system, the container native deployment provides a persistent data store to be accessed by the applications through the IBM Storage Scale CSI driver by using Persistent Volumes (PVs). For more information, see IBM Storage Scale Container Storage Interface Driver.
