The advent of cloud and the everything as a service (XaaS) model requires storage developers to rethink how their products are consumed. Organizations are looking to develop infrastructure and processes that are agnostic from any one cloud vendor, including their own on-premises datacenters. Container orchestrators (COs) like Kubernetes enable this ideal by allowing entire application deployments to be packaged up (in containers and manifests) and moved from environment to environment with relative ease.
