|
| 38 |
- container-based persistent storage options. It supports single and multi-host Docker |
|
| 39 |
- environments with features that include tenant isolation, automated |
|
| 40 |
- provisioning, encryption, secure deletion, snapshots and QoS. |
|
| 41 |
- |
|
| 42 |
-* The [Convoy plugin](https://github.com/rancher/convoy) is a volume plugin for a |
|
| 43 |
- variety of storage back-ends including device mapper and NFS. It's a simple standalone |
|
| 44 |
- executable written in Go and provides the framework to support vendor-specific extensions |
|
| 45 |

|
| 60 |
-* The [IPFS Volume Plugin](http://github.com/vdemeester/docker-volume-ipfs) |
|
| 61 |
- is an open source volume plugin that allows using an |
|
| 62 |
- [ipfs](https://ipfs.io/) filesystem as a volume. |
|
| 63 |
- |
|
| 64 |
-* The [Keywhiz plugin](https://github.com/calavera/docker-volume-keywhiz) is |
|
| 65 |
- a plugin that provides credentials and secret management using Keywhiz as |
|
| 66 |
- a central repository. |
|
| 67 |
- |
|
| 68 |
-* The [Netshare plugin](https://github.com/gondor/docker-volume-netshare) is a volume plugin |
|
| 69 |
- that provides volume management for NFS 3/4, AWS EFS and CIFS file systems. |
|
| 70 |
- |
|
| 71 |
-* The [gce-docker plugin](https://github.com/mcuadros/gce-docker) is a volume plugin able to attach, format and mount Google Compute [persistent-disks](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/persistent-disks). |
|
| 72 |
- |
|
| 73 |
-* The [OpenStorage Plugin](https://github.com/libopenstorage/openstorage) is a cluster aware volume plugin that provides volume management for file and block storage solutions. It implements a vendor neutral specification for implementing extensions such as CoS, encryption, and snapshots. It has example drivers based on FUSE, NFS, NBD and EBS to name a few. |
|
| 74 |
- |
|
| 75 |
-* The [Quobyte Volume Plugin](https://github.com/quobyte/docker-volume) connects Docker to [Quobyte](http://www.quobyte.com/containers)'s data center file system, a general-purpose scalable and fault-tolerant storage platform. |
|
| 76 |
- |
|
| 77 |
-* The [REX-Ray plugin](https://github.com/emccode/rexray) is a volume plugin |

|
| 80 |
- |
|
| 81 |
-* The [Contiv Volume Plugin](https://github.com/contiv/volplugin) is an open |

|
| 83 |
- with intent based consumption using ceph underneath. |
|
| 84 |
- |
|
| 85 |
-* The [Contiv Networking](https://github.com/contiv/netplugin) is an open source |
|
| 86 |
- libnetwork plugin to provide infrastructure and security policies for a |
|
| 87 |
- multi-tenant micro services deployment, while providing an integration to |
|
| 88 |
- physical network for non-container workload. Contiv Networking implements the |
|
| 89 |
- remote driver and IPAM APIs available in Docker 1.9 onwards. |
|
| 90 |
- |
|
| 91 |
-* The [Weave Network Plugin](http://docs.weave.works/weave/latest_release/plugin.html) |
|
| 92 |
- creates a virtual network that connects your Docker containers - |
|
| 93 |
- across multiple hosts or clouds and enables automatic discovery of |
|
| 94 |
- applications. Weave networks are resilient, partition tolerant, |
|
| 95 |
- secure and work in partially connected networks, and other adverse |
|
| 96 |
- environments - all configured with delightful simplicity. |
|
| 97 |
- |
|
| 98 |

|
| 102 |
- driver as well. |
|
| 103 |
- |
|
| 104 |
-* The [Local Persist Plugin](https://github.com/CWSpear/local-persist) |
|
| 105 |
- extends the default `local` driver's functionality by allowing you specify |
|
| 106 |
- a mountpoint anywhere on the host, which enables the files to *always persist*, |
|
| 107 |
- even if the volume is removed via `docker volume rm`. |
|
| 108 |
- |
|
| 109 |
-* The [NetApp Plugin](https://github.com/NetApp/netappdvp) (nDVP) provides |
|
| 110 |
- direct integration with the Docker ecosystem for the NetApp storage portfolio. |
|
| 111 |
- The nDVP package supports the provisioning and management of |
|
| 112 |
- storage resources from the storage platform to Docker hosts, with a robust |
|
| 113 |
- framework for adding additional platforms in the future. |
