[SPDK] Re: a distributed storage system base on SPDK

Hi Ping,

This is indeed the right place to send an email ( I applaud you for such a complex and large endeavor! I'm sure you saw the other replies as well, as you work on your project please feel free to send your SPDK questions and comments here (or in Slack) and, of course, if you have any relevant SPDK contributions as you make forward progress we'd love to see those as well.

Thanks!
Paul

    hello, sorry if this is not the correct place to send such an email. I'm
    writing a distributed storage system, which uses SPDK as the data
    plane. My purpose is using it as a persistent volume for k8s or a
    backend driver for openstack cinder. It is a personal open source
    project. I hope to find someone who is interested in it too.

    My idea is creating a virtual disk array, using SPDK as the disk
    array's controller and disk. The SPDK on the disk exports the physical
    disk to the controller. The SPDK on the controller aggregates multiple
    disks to a single volume and exports to a host. We could set raid level
    or encryption on the controller.

    Now I have a workable version, and my next step is writing a CSI
    plugin for it, let it work on k8s. Hope to hear some feedback about
    it.

    Here is the home page of the project:

    Best regards.
