STORK - Storage Orchestration Runtime for Kubernetes
Stork is a Cloud Native storage orchestration runtime scheduler plugin. It translates a scheduler's orchestration decisions into someting that an external cloud native storage solution can act upon. By doing so, it extends Kubernetes with more stateful awareness of the underlying storage provider, it's capabilities and state.
Steps to run STORK can be found here: https://github.com/libopenstorage/stork#run-stork-in-your-kubernetes-cluster
Stork is a scheduler extender for kubernetes and needs to listen on a port for requests from the scheduler. The following docker options needs to be passed in to map ports between the container and host:
-p 8099:8099 Opens container port 8099 and maps it to the same port on the Host.
