Fuxi is a docker volume plugin that allows users to use Docker API to manage data volumes backed by Cinder or Manila. Fuxi is a desired solution for some use cases, but it has several disadvantages: * It currently doesn't support multi-tenancy. Fuxi-server will use a pre-created credential to authenticate againest Cinder/Manila. Therefore, it cannot manage resources that is outside of the tenant of the credential. * It is currently under heavy development. In particular, Fuxi team is planning to port the code from Python to Golang [1]. The stability of the project will be affected. * It is a web service. That means extra overhead for operators to install and manage the extra service. Due to the limitations, we proposes to introduce another driver as an alternative. The new driver will be a standalone module (instead of a service) that directly interfaces with Cinder. The architecture will be designed to be pluggable so that the support of multiple volume drivers is possible.
