" summary

The Storage WG meets biweekly, collects input from ~30 companies and tracks concrete projects like CSI, Rook, OpenEBS and Portworx, and aims to produce a white paper for the TOC. CSI currently implements create/delete/attach/detach and is explicitly expanding to snapshots and backup control planes; gaps include cross-orchestrator failure semantics and complex workflows. The group prioritizes interoperability and portability, evaluates trends like persistent memory and NVMe over Fabric, and runs subgroups to produce specs and reference patterns.
