IBM Storage Scale Container Native: Implementation Guide for Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift

This IBM Redbooks publication provides comprehensive technical guidance for deploying and operating IBM Storage Scale Container Native in Kubernetes and Red Hat OpenShift environments. The document covers IBM Storage Scale Container Native architectural principles, including the separation of management and data planes, and explores deployment models across remote, local, and direct-attach storage configurations.

It includes detailed installation procedures, platform-specific considerations for OpenShift versus upstream Kubernetes, and troubleshooting strategies. Real-world use cases demonstrate IBM Storage Scale Container Native implementations for enterprise applications including IBM FileNet Content Manager, PostgreSQL, IBM DB2 Data Warehouse, virtual machine storage, and GenAI workloads with vLLM. The publication concludes with high availability and disaster recovery strategies, including stretched clusters, cache volumes with object store backends, and storage-based replication procedures. This guide bridges theoretical design with practical operational requirements for production containerized environments requiring enterprise-grade storage capabilities.
