Yep, some CSI providers do that, but as far as i know it's more niche ones (like VMware's), not any of the big cloud providers.

- candiddevmike 4y agoI tried using a CSI driver with Nomad (AWS) and AFAIK you have to pre-create the EBS volumes? I couldn't figure out how to spin them up on demand.
- sofixa 4y agoThat was probably before the Nomad 1.3 release which added a bunch of new CSI features, including dynamic volume creation IIRC.
- orthoxerox 4y agoI wouldn't call vmware a niche provider, they own a large share of on prem virualization market.
- sofixa 4y agoWhich is a dying breed, and furthermore running an orchestrator on top of another one (Nomad or Kubernetes on top of vSphere) is a terrible anti-pattern that wastes CPU and makes performance issues hard to debug due to the two layers.
