Abstract: Containerized high-performance network storage is disclosed. For example, first and second memories are associated with first and second hosts and separated by a network. A storage controller and a container scheduler execute on processors. The container scheduler instantiates first and second storage containers on the respective first and second hosts. The storage controller configures the first and second storage containers as first and second storage nodes of a distributed file system. The container scheduler instantiates a service container on the first host. The storage controller receives a persistent volume claim associated with the service container and then creates a persistent storage volume in the first storage node based on the persistent volume claim. The persistent storage volume is mapped to the service container, where a content of the persistent storage volume is replicated to the second storage node.
