Intro: Rook - Jared Watts, Upbound

In this talk, we will be introducing the Rook project to attendees of all levels and experience. Rook is an open source cloud-native storage orchestrator for Kubernetes, providing the platform, framework, and support for a diverse set of storage solutions to natively integrate with cloud-native environments. Rook turns storage software into self-managing, self-scaling, and self-healing storage services. It does this by automating deployment, bootstrapping, configuration, provisioning, scaling, upgrading, migration, disaster recovery, monitoring, and resource management. We will explore the benefits and use cases of Rook, and we will also walk through the architecture that the project is built on. Rook was accepted as the first storage project hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) in January 2018.

Data Without Borders - Using Rook Storage Orchestration at a Global Scale - Jared Watts, Upbound

The Rook project has established robust and reliable patterns for orchestrating storage systems running on-top of Kubernetes clusters. However, storage systems often need to extend beyond a single cluster to provide data to end users in many different locations. How can these globally distributed storage systems best be orchestrated and managed to meet the needs of their users on a global scale? In this talk, we will examine the key concepts of storage orchestration for cloud native applications in multicloud environments, as well as the major benefits of these types of deployments. We will learn about the challenges that arise and best practices to address them, such as replication, mirroring, snapshots, and disaster recovery. All of these lessons will be in the context of the Rook project, including a live demonstration of storage orchestration on a global scale.

Deep Dive: Rook - Jared Watts & Bassam Tabbara, Upbound

In this talk, we will be taking a deep-dive through both the architecture and some of the more recent developments of the Rook project. Rook is an open source cloud-native storage orchestrator for Kubernetes, providing the platform, framework, and support for a diverse set of storage solutions to natively integrate with cloud-native environments. We will learn in more depth about the recently added support for new storage providers, such as Cassandra and EdgeFS. We will also explore how Rook can implement new abstractions of storage to enable dynamic provisioning of more persistent resources in your applications, making them more portable and able to deploy consistently no matter what the environment is. Rook was accepted as the first storage project hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation in January 2018.

Rook, Ceph, and ARM: A Caffeinated Tutorial - Federico Lucifredi & Sébastien Han, Red Hat

We picked a single-board computer with a dual-core ARM cortex A-53 and 2GB of RAM, put eight of them together, and built a low-power Ceph cluster not much bigger than the hard drives themselves. Sounds interesting? Come see us do it live right in front of you! After we review the design choices and architecture of the cluster, we will use it to showcase the use of Rook, the CNCF's incubation project designed to be a cloud-native storage orchestrator for Kubernetes, turning storage technologies into a service completely transparent to the user. A comprehensive examination of uses and open problems will complement our review of Rook's architecture. We will deep-dive into what it does well, what it does not do (yet), and what are the operational trade-offs of using a storage operator. With live access to a running cluster, we will showcase Rook in action as we discuss its capabilities.

Adding a New Storage Provider to Rook - Jared Watts, Upbound

The CNCF hosted Rook project has built a framework for running stateful workloads on Kubernetes, enabling storage providers to seamlessly and effectively integrate into cloud native environments. This framework is already being used to support multiple storage providers such as Ceph, CockroachDB, Minio and NFS. In this talk, Jared will walk through how new storage providers can also take advantage of this framework to easily and reliably run on Kubernetes. He will also cover the benefits that Rook provides to make this transition to cloud native environments easier for new storage providers. Finally, the important architecture, design, and concepts for running storage solutions on Kubernetes will be explored in detail.

Deep Dive: Rook - Travis Nielsen, Red Hat & Alexander Trost, Cloudibility

The Rook operator implements custom resource definitions (CRDs) to express the desired state of storage providers for Kubernetes. This deep dive will review the framework Rook provides to integrate the storage providers with an operator and CRDs. As an example, details of the Ceph operator will be shown, including how it builds on the Rook framework and how Ceph’s specific orchestration needs are met. The Ceph mons require special handling to stay in quorum and handle failover. Ceph OSDs require several stages of discovery and provisioning before the daemons are started. The Ceph mgr runs an active and standby daemon for high availability. For object storage, Rook creates all the pools and starts the rgw daemons needed. For a shared file system, Rook creates the pools and starts the MDS daemon with a standby. These and other challenges with the Ceph daemons will be discussed.

Presentatin by Bassam Tabbara, Founder and CEO, Upbound at 2018 GeekWire Cloud Tech Summit: geekwire.com/cloudsummit

Kubernetes has become the de facto container orchestrator and now runs everywhere from public clouds to private clouds. One of the most powerful features of Kubernetes is the ability to deploy your applications consistently no matter what the environment is, but the same should be true for your storage if you want to realize the full potential of Kubernetes.
In this talk, we will explore options and tradeoffs for running stateful workloads on Kubernetes. We will also introduce Rook, a CNCF-hosted storage orchestrator for Kubernetes, and show how it can help run portable stateful workloads on Kubernetes.

Economics of using Local Storage Attached to VMs on Cloud Providers [I] - Pavel Snagovsky, Quantum

Public cloud storage resource offerings aren't always optimal to run Cloud Native applications. This talk explores several storage options comparing costs, performance, resilience, features and interfaces of file, block and object storage for Cloud Native applications in AWS. EBS vs Instance store for Kubernetes nodes are compared for different scenarios. This talk also covers pros and cons of leveraging object store using resources already provisioned as oppose s3.

Abstract:
Internally storage systems are actually complex distributed systems and implementers spend significant resources managing the cluster. Now that we have maturing container orchestration systems, much of that work can be delegated to the orchestrator allowing storage developers to concentrate on storage. In this presentation, we will talk about our experiences building Rook.io on top of Kubernetes and demonstrate how container orchestration changes perspectives on storage cluster implementation.

The CNCF Storage WG meets bi-monthly to explore cloud native storage technology and concepts. Its current initiative is a project that aims to define an industry standard “container storage interface” (CSI). This interface would enable storage vendors to write a driver once and have it work across a number of container orchestration (CO) systems. This video is the WG July 18th meeting where the group discussed ROOK and received a demo of the technology.

Modern software storage systems are inherently complex. They are composed of numerous distributed components, require careful balancing of resources, and have stringent performance requirements. If you're running your applications in a public cloud you're typically shielded from this complexity and can utilize managed storage services like EBS, S3 and EFS. If you're running on-premise, however, your choices are quite limited and typically result in using traditional big-iron storage systems. In this talk, JJ will walkthrough a deploying and running a production-ready storage cluster using Kubernetes. Storage nodes can run as pods and enumerate the available storage devices within the cluster. JJ will show how some of the features of Kubernetes including controllers/operators, third-party resources, resource management, and rolling upgrades can lead to more powerful and resilient storage clusters.

Building a Storage Cluster with Kubernetes [I] - Bassam Tabbara, Quantum Corp.

Modern software storage systems are inherently complex. They are composed of numerous distributed components, require careful balancing of resources, and have stringent performance requirements. If you're running your applications in a public cloud you're typically shielded from this complexity and can utilize managed storage services like EBS, S3 and EFS. If you're running on-premise, however, your choices are quite limited and typically result in using traditional big-iron storage systems.

In this talk we'll walkthrough how we've built a production-ready storage cluster using Kubernetes. Storage nodes run as pods and enumerate the available storage devices within the cluster. We'll explore how to optimize the network through CNI plugins to separate client and storage cluster traffic. We'll show how some of the features of Kubernetes including controllers/operators, third-party resources, resource management, and rolling upgrades can lead to more powerful and resilient storage clusters. We'll also walk through use cases where the storage cluster is dedicated (hyperscaled) or shared with other applications (hyperconverged).

Kubernetes Runs Anywhere, but Does your Data? - Jared Watts, Upbound (Beginner Skill Level)

Kubernetes is now the defacto container orchestrator and it is able to run basically anywhere, from cloud providers to bare metal clusters. With this ubiquitous ability to run your applications comes a need for persistent storage that also runs anywhere Kubernetes runs. One of the most powerful features of Kubernetes is the ability to deploy your applications consistently no matter what the environment is. The same should be true for your storage if you want to realize the full potential of Kubernetes. We will walk through the architecture of Rook (https://rook.io/), a distributed storage orchestrator for Kubernetes that provides storage to your application pods anywhere Kubernetes runs. We’ll explore how to use extension mechanisms such as CRDs as well as patterns like controllers/operators, resource management, and rolling upgrades to build a portable Kubernetes storage solution.
