Integrates northbound with Docker Swarm, es & Mesos.
Southbound is agnostic of underlying infrastructure stack and storage platform.
Provides information about volume state and status.
REST API, Command Line and UX interfaces for superior operational visibility.

Dell SC Flocker Driver
Started discussing solution with ClusterHQ early 2015
Able to quickly prototype Flocker driver using a lot of our Cinder driver code.
Decided to create native driver rather than using Cinder for customers not using OpenStack.

Full development and QA plete starting with the Flocker release.

Now able to use “gold”, “silver”, and “bronze” storage profiles for Docker volumes that map to SC Storage Profiles for control over storage properties.
