Abstract
Techniques are provided for implementing a distributed control plane to facilitate communication between a container orchestration platform and a distributed storage architecture. The distributed storage architecture hosts worker nodes that manage distributed storage that can be made accessible to applications within the container orchestration platform through the distributed control plane. However, the worker nodes may support an imperative model of program commands, but the container orchestration platform and applications therein utilize a declarative model of programming commands not supported by the distributed storage architecture. Accordingly, the distributed control plane is configured with control plane controllers that are paired with the worker nodes and are configured to reformat commands between the imperative model and the declarative model. In this way, the control plane controllers can facilitate communication and performance of commands between the applications of the container orchestration platform and the worker nodes of the distributed storage architecture.
