Dell CSMs are modules that enable simple and consistent integration and automation experiences, extending enterprise storage capabilities. SMs expose enterprise features of storage arrays to Kubernetes so that the developers can use these features in their deployments efficiently and seamlessly. CSMs reduce the complexities of management, making it easier to consume enterprise storage, and automate daily operation tasks such as provisioning, snapshotting, replication, observability, authorization, application mobility, encryption, and resiliency. For more information and the support matrix, see Dell Technologies Container Storage Modules.
The following figure shows the Dell CSMs. The two CSMs that are available as technical preview features only, Encryption and App Mobility, are identified with an asterisk symbol.
