CO-LOCATION OF STORAGE BUCKETS WITH CONTAINERIZED APPLICATIONS

Abstract:

A system and method for co-locating a containerized application and an associated cloud storage bucket are provided. In embodiments, a method includes determining, by a computing device, a location of a containerized application in a data storage network; determining, by the computing device, that a cloud storage bucket does not yet exist in a geographic zone associated with the location of the containerized application; selecting, by the computing device, a data storage location for the cloud storage bucket from a plurality of data storage locations in the data storage network based on the geographic zone; and sending, by the computing device, a request to create the cloud storage bucket to the data storage location and causing creation and co-location of the cloud storage bucket within a predetermined distance of the containerized application.
