NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Rook is an open source cloud native storage orchestrator for Kubernetes. Rook integrates with Ceph and brings File, Block and Object storage systems into the Kubernetes cluster, running them seamlessly alongside other applications and services that are consuming the storage. By using Kubernetes operators, Rook orchestrates Ceph at the control plane and stays clear of the data path between applications and Ceph. Storage is one of the important components of cloud-native computing and we believe that Rook, though still an incubating-level project at CNCF, takes us a step closer to self-sufficiency and portability across public cloud and on-premise deployments.
