SODA Open Data Framework (ODF) v1.4.0 Jerba Release is designed to simplify Kubernetes storage and data management.
Multi-instance CSI support along with seamless CSI pluggability, consistent snapshot across on-prem to any cloud along in a framework for container data management.
Heterogeneous Storage Performance Monitoring(SPM) has been enhanced with a distributed scheduler for metric collection, new metric additions, host-mapping support and more vendor driver support. Storage Service Plan framework has been added in the multi-cloud, which can abstract the storage backends and provide ability to create custom service plans. Automatic bucket management now supports all major cloud services.
Jerba is ready for POC testing for container data management across on-prem/cloud, heterogeneous monitoring and multi-cloud data management
